This study investigated the impact of synchronous computer-mediated communication (SCMC) mode and familiarity with partners on learner engagement in second-language task-based interaction, and whether learner engagement is linked to subsequent joint-written-text quality. Ninety-eight Vietnamese learners of English were assigned into (±) familiar groups and performed a picture-sequencing tasks in 2 SCMC modes (i.e., video and text chat). Scores of 3 types of learner engagement (cognitive, social, and emotional) were compared across the conditions. Results showed that scores of all engagement types in the video chat were significantly higher than in the text chat. Familiar dyads also showed higher engagement than unfamiliar peers during the interaction. Learners reported different reasons for their preferences of video chat over text chat. Language-related episodes, semantically engaged talk, and mutual help as measures of learner engagement were predictive of the subsequent text quality. The results contribute to the general understanding of the characteristics of video and text chat and their impact on learner engagement and text quality.

学习者在 L2 计算机介导的交互中的参与：聊天模式、对话者熟悉度和文本质量

本研究调查了同步计算机介导的交流 (SCMC) 模式和与合作伙伴的熟悉度对学习者在第二语言任务型交互中的参与度的影响，以及学习者参与度是否与随后的联合书面文本质量相关。98 名越南英语学习者被分配到 (±) 熟悉的小组中，并在 2 种 SCMC 模式（即视频和文本聊天）中执行图片排序任务。在不同条件下比较了 3 种类型的学习者参与（认知、社交和情感）的得分。结果显示，视频聊天中所有参与类型的得分均显着高于文本聊天。在互动过程中，熟悉的二人组也比不熟悉的同伴表现出更高的参与度。学习者报告了他们更喜欢视频聊天而不是文本聊天的不同原因。语言相关的情节、语义参与的谈话和相互帮助作为学习者参与的衡量标准，可以预测随后的文本质量。结果有助于对视频和文本聊天的特征及其对学习者参与度和文本质量的影响的一般理解。
