"The Academic Word List (AWL) was developed by Averil Coxhead at the School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. The list contains 570 word families which were selected because they appear with great frequency in a broad range of academic texts. The list does not include words that are in the most frequent 2000 words of English (the General Service List), thus making it specific to academic contexts. The AWL was primarily made so that it could be used by teachers as part of a programme preparing learners for tertiary level study or used by students working alone to learn the words most needed to study at colleges and universities." This page gives a compact listing of all the word families in the AWL, divided by sublist, each word linked to a simple definition page.

Building Communities--Strategies for Collaborative Learning - 2002 - ASTD - 0 views

www.astd.org/...0802_kaplan.htm

shared by Paul Beaufait on 14 Sep 09 - Cached

E-learning communities are groups of people connected solely via technology. All interactions begin and occur over the Internet, through conference calls, via videoconferencing, and so forth. These communities promote virtual collaboration that's focused on addressing a specific topic, and they are supported by one or more online learning and media tools.
...

Cancel
Blended learning communities integrate online learning and face-to-face meetings. Two core assumptions of this type of community are 1) deep personal relationships between learners create richer collaborative learning experiences and 2) relationships between learners can be strengthened through structured group interactions that employ technology before and/or after a face-to-face learning event.
...

Cancel
For example, a leadership development program might include an ice-breaker community to provide prework and introduce participants, a face-to-face experiential workshop to help clarify and define individual development objectives, and a follow-up community that focuses on coaching and mentoring to overcome challenges as participants achieve their objectives.

Whether creating a community for e-learning or one that supports a blended learning approach, community builders must consider a variety of factors related to people, group processes, and technology--if they're to design and orchestrate online environments that inspire collaborative learning.
...

Cancel
As the term community has become an ambiguous buzzword, the concept has become synonymous with online discussion boards and chat rooms. When put into a learning context, however, community can be a vehicle for connecting people to other people’s stories and experiences, as well as mentoring, all of which result in accelerated learning and the sharing of tacit knowledge within an organization.
