[Air-l] distributed work

[Alex Kuskis]

Broadening the band even farther, there are also the CSCL'ers, those
focusing on computer-supported collaborative learning. See
http://www.edb.utexas.edu/csclstudent/Dhsiao/theories.html . But,
these days the term seems to be increasingly replaced by e-learning,
although the latter need not necessarily be collaborative.......Alex
