    Annotation This paper reports a year-long case study that focused on the unique learning experiences of a Chinese graduate student at a U.S. university. Working within a sociocultural framework and employing R. Scollon and S.W. Scollon?s discourse approach to the study of intercultural communication, the study followed this woman's journey from her monocultural beginning as a Confucian learner to the complex accommodations and shifts in epistemologies that were required of her first in an online course, then in in-country live classrooms. The study showed that simultaneous membership in native and host academic discourses might have formative and constructive effect on a student?s growth as a learner and an individual even though it might lead to conflicts of identity and significantly complicate student?s learning experiences. The research demonstrated applicability of the Scollons? discourse approach to the study of international students? experiences and revealed the necessity to design cours
