Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Dealing With Divergent Feedback Trajectories in Video-Mediated, Transnational, and Collaborative Task Design Meetings(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Colak, Fulya; Balaman, UfukThis study investigates mutual pedagogical decision making among transnational groups of preservice teachers (from Austria and T & uuml;rkiye) involved in finalizing the design of telecollaborative tasks after receiving multimodal feedback from different teacher educators. Within the scope of a Virtual Exchange project, while the teacher educator from the Turkish university conducted a large-group, whole-class, video-mediated meeting offering feedback, the teacher educator from the Austrian university preferred delivering written feedback. Examining the screen-recordings of pre-service teachers' video-mediated meetings and the diverse feedback sources, we found that the divergent feedback trajectories provide opportunities for pedagogical design-related decision making and meaning negotiation for pre-service teachers. The findings also show the synergies between the multilayered frameworks of participation and engagement in situ and bring new insights into the interactional management of video-mediated learning environments.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 27The Use of Online Dictionaries in Video-Mediated L2 Interactions for the Social Accomplishment of Virtual Exchange Tasks(Elsevier, 2022) Balaman, Ufuk; Çolak, FulyaMobile applications and dedicated websites as online dictionaries have been common resources in language learning and teaching settings for years. Primarily used for looking up unknown words in reading, writing, and vocabulary learning activities, online dictionaries have been considered highly feasible, individual learning materials. However, their situated use in synchronous video-mediated interactions has remained largely unexplored despite their potential to help L2 learners resolve word-knowledge-related troubles, thus creating opportunities for meaning negotiation. Using Multimodal Conversation Analysis, this study describes the active use of online dictionaries in task-oriented video-mediated L2 interactions of Virtual Exchange participants in higher education. The close examination of the screen-recorded interactions shows that online dictionaries play an essential role in the social accomplishment of intercultural tasks. The findings indicate that L2 learners do not only look up unknown words, but they also look up the synonyms of already known words and validate their existing knowledge. Moreover, online dictionaries operate in a context-specific sequential environment consisting of diverse participant roles (describer/recipient), embodied actions, and grammatical action formats. Additionally, we observe that Wikipedia and image search emerge as supplementary tools to dictionary look-ups. The findings bring new insights into computer assisted language learning, video-mediated interactions, and Virtual Exchange
