2 Collaborative Learning: The act of shared creation and discovery where learners work in groups on the same task simultaneously, thinking and learning together. Virtual collaborative tools permit users to communicate with one another (without members being physically in the same location) to share information, knowledge and best practices.

Online Learning: The act of learning through activities delivered using Internet-based technologies. It can be synchronous (learners and instructor must attend the learning event at the same time; often called virtual classroom) or asynchronous (self-paced learning independent of time).

Blended Learning: An approach to learning that combines two or more delivery methods (examples: classroom-based, computer/Internet-based, on the job training, etc.) Note: Within each of these delivery methods, the content may also have various pedagogical blends (i.e. learning strategies).
