社群網站（social network sites）已與現代生活密切結合，而在近年來教學上也開始漸漸使用社群網站建立學習者使用之虛擬社群（virtual community）或作線上學習社群（online learning community）。「線上學習社群經營」課程希望透過講述、討論與實作，帶領學生探究線上社群之概念，並幫助學生進一步了解社群網絡的特徵（feature）與應用（application）。本課程也帶領學生認識社群經營的原則，並探討如何有效的維繫社群的互動與勵學生獲得最有效之學習。本課程第一部分介紹何為虛擬社群與學習社群之定義；本課程之第二部分則認識虛擬社群與學習社群之基本概念與樣貌；本課程第三部分則帶領學生探討其他可能影響線上學習社群之管理與線上學習之因素。Social network sites have been closely linked to modern life, and in recent years, teaching has also begun to use community websites to establish virtual communities or online learning communities used by learners. The "Online Learning Community Campaign" course hopes to lead students to explore the concept of online communities through lectures, discussions and practices, and help students further understand the characteristics and applications of community networks. This course also leads students to understand the principles of community management and explores how to effectively build community interaction and help students get the most effective learning. The first part of this course introduces what is the definition of virtual and learning community; the second part of this course recognizes the basic concepts and appearance of virtual and learning communities; the third part of this course introduces students to explore other factors that may affect the management and online learning of online learning communities.
