Abstract

Reports results of a longitudinal study of the impact of computer mediated communication (CMC) by students and staff of the Department of Communication and Information Studies, Queen Margaret College, Edinburgh over a 5 year period and the value they derived from it. Data covers levels and patterns of messaging as well as perceptions of, and attitudes towards, CMC activities. Despite rapid changes in technological capabilities, there was seen to be some stability of reactions to CMC, with students particularly valuing administrative and course orientated uses
