When learners are taking a course in a new area of study that includes unfamiliar terminology, there are two ways to present information:

the teacher defines it directly for the learner; or

the learner identifies the terms he doesn’t know and seeks out the definition.

What if the students collaborated on their own glossary?

Shared Knowledge Base—Variation

Collaborative Glossary

Building a shared online glossary has the following advantages in an online course. It:

creates good study habits;

strengthens research skills;

leads to a better understanding of concepts through close-up work and analysis;

saves time for the teacher; and

fosters collaboration skills.
