Abstract

This chapter investigates the discursive dimension of digital learning environments with a focus on emergent digital language practices and new text architectures. Thus, in order to reflect and characterize these digital language practices afforded by e-learning environments, the authors ground their reflections on the theoretical framework proposed by Paveau to define and analyze technodiscursive practices. How do the platform's algorithmic patterns and affordances shape the way meaning is made in digital texts and online technolanguage activities? Guided by this key question, this chapter will characterize and analyze one e-learning environment—CGScholar—based on the platform's technodiscursive practices. Through a qualitative methodological approach, the author investigates and illustrates how digital learning ecologies designs/programs support the nature and complexity of technolanguage activities, based on Paveau's work on technodiscourse.
