StellarNet - The TEL Thesaurus and Dictionary meta-project
The TEL Thesaurus and Dictionary meta-project intends to create an intellectual platform to support the conceptual and theoretical integration of TEL research.
The TEL Thesaurus establishes a list of the key words currently used across TEL research (based on the corpus provided by journals and conferences). The idea is to structure this set by...
reviewing the list of keywords and identifying those which are specific to TEL research, from those which are in fact disciplinary keywords
reviewing the TEL specific keywords to cluster them from a conceptual and/or theoretical and/or a methodological perspective.
The TEL dictionary will provide definitions with key references exploiting preferably open access resources, and in particular the TEL open archive.
