This presentation gave survey data from an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) class using an online fantasy sports league as the primary course component. The goals of the study were to (a) determine students’ perceptions regarding how effective fantasy sports were in facilitating interactive negotiation, and (b) which functions of negotiating meaning were most used. Responses showed that students agreed to a fairly high degree that fantasy sports facilitated negotiation of meaning. Students also responded that clarification was the most used function of negotiation of meaning, followed by comprehension and confirmation, respectively.
