Building a Library of E-Learning Terms
Jul 03, 2018
Hey peeps,
The community team has been working on a series called E-Learning ABCs. It's a glossary of terms, concepts, and words related to e-learning, training, and instructional design. You'll see some familiar and common terms such as ADDIE, Learning Management System (LMS), and SCORM. But this is just a beginning, there are many things not included in the glossary yet!
I'd love to know from the community what additional words, concepts, and terms you'd like to see covered in this list. Please let me know in the comments.
Thanks in advance helpful community peeps!

A really good point Nicole.
A couple more that spring to mind for me ... assets / vector and raster images / kerning and leading (I am an old school graphic designer who still thinks these concepts are important).
How about concepts from layout as well? Balance? symmetry vs asymmetry? negative space? the rule of thirds, avoiding floating?
I just hope it doesn't get weighed down with people justifying their existence through terms too....
Some good suggestions there, Steve! Thank you! I like the idea of incorporating some design related terms as well.
I would ditch the numbered entry for each item, as they are likely to change as new items get added and people generally navigate dictionaries/glossaries by looking for letters.
Would flipped learning be worth mentioning? I would be interested to see lots of different learning styles in the glossary.
Also I love this idea, I can't wait to see it populated further will be a great resource for me.
If you want to build CMS same as Moodle . I think you need building flatform Flexible better than it. May be install plugin and module so easier and customize theme CMS same website myphamlinhhuong so easier
Just took a quick look and 2 terms come to mind: accessibility and xAPI
These are great ideas! Keep em' coming folks!
@Narissa love the idea of incorporating learning styles
@Nancy accessibiltiy is a great one! We do have Tin Can API but I can cross reference it to xAPI.
Nicole, it would be good if you could add xAPI or even Experience API. I think the term Tin Can is now obsolete.
Thanks Nancy! I will add those! Many e-learning and training articles I've read from 2018 still refer to Tin Can by that name, and we still list it as Tin can in the publishing options in Storyline 360 so I wouldn't say it's obsolete quite yet ;)
Makes sense! I was also thinking you might want to include
Great ideas, Nancy! Some of those we've already got covered, but a few of them I had not thought of and I've added them to our list. Especially "streaming" and "embedding" those are good ones. Thanks for all your ideas!! Our Super Heroes always come through for us :)
An e-learning glossary is a good idea, Nicole!
My suggestions would include:
How about roles?
Thank you for your ideas, Punam and Calvin! Some really good ones suggested.
Some terms that cut right to the heart of our industry might include:
Cheers!

I forgot to add:

OK, I'll stop after this!
Cheers!

Great list! How about flipped classroom, blended learning?
E-Learning is a widely used and popular platform you need to learn a lot of things from it and your learning will increase a lot as I learn and create my congtybalo. Wish you success and will learn more from this platform
E-Learning is a widely used & I learn and create my xadenhoabinh. An e-learning glossary is a good idea, Nicole!
