6. Description Abstract This chapter highlights students’ use of e-mail as a kind of asynchronous electronic dropbox through which they submit assignments that would otherwise be submitted in real time in person to their teacher. Messages specifically coded as dropbox examples are analyzed for e-mail characteristics previously explored in recent studies: forms of address and openings, preclosings and closings, opening/closing combinations, subject lines, and pragmatic functions. This chapter, like all subsequent chapters, closes with a description of related pedagogical implications and areas for future research.
