Presentation at 2010 Christa McAuliffe Technology Conference: While the physical learning commons provides learners with information resources, space, and technology for research and content production, the virtual learning commons offers the digital equivalent. From databases and eBooks to Web 2.0 tools like wikis, blogs, and various productivity sites, the virtual learning commons gives students a place to gather, seek, create, and share. By highlighting a wide array of online tools organized around the themes of doing and sharing content, this workshop suggests ways that traditional websites can be expanded and made more modern and useful for today’s 21st-century learners. Illustrative school and library websites are also profiled. Explore the virtual learning commons concept as illustrated by different academic websites.
