Creating an Online Learning Community
Virtual Schools Symposium, Alberta Education, Edmonton, Alberta, Seminar, Nov 25, 1999.
An Online Learning Community is the convergence of online learning and online communities. It's not a 'community' label slapped onto just any online course and it's not a 'learning' label slapped onto just any online community. I've discovered that the collaboration that occurs in such classroom communities is necessary for the process that others have called shared cognition.
