- This study examines instructor communication during the initiation, development, and implementation of a short-term virtual exchange (VE) between university students in Japan and Taiwan. While much VE research focuses on student outcomes, less attention has been given to the communicative processes through which instructors negotiate and coordinate exchanges. Drawing on thematic analysis of forty-one emails exchanged over an eight-week period, this study identifies four interconnected themes: negotiating consensus in planning, emphasizing student collaboration and engagement, collaboratively addressing emerging challenges, and providing proactive support while respecting differences. The findings highlight how sustained communication, flexibility, and shared pedagogical intentions shaped the organization of the exchange. The analysis foregrounds the relational and practical work required to align logistical decisions, technological arrangements, and student-centered goals. It also identifies areas for improvement, including clearer allocation of responsibilities, more structured feedback mechanisms, and pre-exchange technical preparation. By centering instructor interaction as the focus of investigation, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the communicative and collaborative processes that underpin short-term cross-border VE implementation.
