Abstract: The following study investigates social relationships and academic profitability of an e-mail literature circle. Students enrolled in similar courses at 2 different Texas universities, were assigned a Distance Learning Partner (DLP), whom they emailed throughout the semester, dialoguing about their assigned literature circle novel; and then they collaborated on creating a Web page, presenting several aspects of their novel. At the end of the course, students analyzed their experience by explaining the benefits of the DLP. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
