The only thing is interest based to me says it is less formal and a school based online community would be professional.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">Hey Ms, I am just in the process of marking a practice exam, but I am not entirely sure<br>
about the suggested response for Q2c). I have listed details below. (Exam is TSSM 2011).<br>
<br>
<br>
The case study is:<br>
<b><i><span style="color:red">Question 2</span></i></b><span style="color:red"><br>
<i>The principal of Traralgon Grammar wishes to find a way of passing on information to the<br>
parents, providing an explanation of key events that have occurred and events that will occur in<br>
the near future.<br>
<br>
</i></span>The question is:<br>
<span style="color:red">Explain what an online community is and the type of online community that this would be<br>
part of.</span><br>
<br>
The suggested response is:<br>
<i><span style="color:red">This would be considered an interest based online community as the<br>
audience are parents who have an interest in the happenings of the school community (1<br>
mark)</span></i><br>
<br>
I would have thought that it would be a professional/work-based community but it seems I would have been wrong.<br>
I am not so sure about that though because it's not like it is a hobby or anything because it's going to be part of a school<br>
website, so in many respects it is professional-based.<br>
<br>
My response was:<br>
An online community is a group of people that collaborate or meet online at a designated place
<br>
for a specific intended purpose. This would be a 'professional/work-based community' as it does<br>
not have the intention or purpose to socialise nor is it a hobby or interest-based. It is also for an<br>
educational institute which would generally indicate it is for professional purposes.<br>
<br>
What is your take on it?<br>
<br>
<br>
