- e-Learning applications and processes are constantly changing and evolving, and
- the e-Learning community has members all over the world.
These two facts make communication and common understanding of e-Learning issues hard to follow. It is important that e-Learning professionals, researchers, experts, and learners have a common basis in order to communicate effectively. In other words, they need to “speak the same language”. Therefore, I have created the following list of e-learning glossaries.
We support Free eLearning! Do you?
Leaning Circuits – ASTD
Everyone has something to say about e-learning, but are we communicating in the same language? In the glossary you will find a collection of terms and their definitions to help you “speak” e-learning. This glossary is updated periodically and reviewed by a panel of e-learning experts.
Common e-learning terms used in online education including accreditation, virtual classroom, community, university, college, etc.
Ecampus
Ecampus glossary provides definitions of e-Learning.
E-Learning Glossary – Imperial College London
Barrier-Free eLearning
When participating with WSU, College of Engineering’s Barrier-Free eLearning program, you may be introduced to new terms and concepts. WSU have provided the glossary to assist new users joining their eLearning community.

Connie Malamed has created a glossary of online learning terms at her blog the eLearningcoach!
ISITE Design’s e-Learning Glossary

The glossary is actually a wiki created by the eLearning Network’s members.
Ontario’s Ministry of Education e-Learning Glossary

In my opinion the BEST e-Learning Glossary is the ASTD’s.
