Abstract

A cybercell is a face-to-face group whose members extend their discussion to include virtual visitors (Stevens & Stewart, 2005a). This recent addition to the lexicon of e-learning describes the integration of actual and virtual discussions, meetings, and classes and has particular application in Internet-based networks of schools (Stevens, 2005b). Cybercells provide teachers with opportunities to discuss their respective work with other teachers on-site and online, for students to similarly discuss their work with other students and for teachers to engage students in both actual and virtual environments.
