Examines ways
primary-aged children in the United Kingdom and Finland socially
construct writing while using computers. Finds children's talk to
be highly task-related and to concern mostly composing, not ways
in which to use the computer. Suggests that ways in which children
interact and write while using computers are embedded in wider sociocultural
contexts. (RS)
