	<ABSTRACT>&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0in 0in 0pt&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot;&gt;In this online article, collaborative community-builder Jeff Cooper describes the growing use of TAPPED IN and other virtual learning communities (VLCs) to expand teaching and learning opportunities for students and educators. Published in &amp;quot;NETC Circuit,&amp;quot; the newsletter of the Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory's Northwest Educational Technology Consortium, the article is a mix of evangelism, exciting strategies, &amp;quot;how-to&amp;quot; information, and VLC resources. We recommend it to anyone interested in exploring the collaboration potential of the Web. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
