Academic Community<\/b><\/p>\r\n
All students and academic staff of an educational institution (Academic Community Definition<\/i>, n.d.).<\/p>\r\n
Heathershaw et al. (2022) expanded the definition to include \u201cacademics, students and other staff teaching, researching and\/or studying at a UK HE institution(s), exercising their academic freedom; or, those communities collectively within the UK HE Sector.\u201d (p. 1859). Thus, academic community is comprised of people in different roles engaged in teaching, learning, and research in an educational environment.<\/p>\r\n
Close Reading<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cClose reading, also known as close textual analysis, investigates the relationship between the internal workings of discourse in order to discover what makes a particular text function persuasively\u201d (Castilla, 2017, p. 136).<\/p>\r\n
Collocates<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cWords found in proximity of each keyword\u201d (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016e, para. 3).<\/p>\r\n
Concordance<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cA list of all of the words appearing in a text often shown in their immediate contexts\u201d (Seale, 2018, p. 586).<\/p>\r\n
Contextual Frequency or Count (Context)<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cThe frequency of the collocate occurring in proximity to the keyword\u201d in the corpus (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016e).<\/p>\r\n
Copyright<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cA bundle of intangible rights granted by statute to the author or originator of certain literary or artistic productions, whereby, for a limited period, the exclusive privilege is given to that person (or to any party to whom he or she transfers ownership) to make copies of the same for publication and sale\u201d (\u201cCopyright,\u201d 2008).<\/p>\r\n
Corpus<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cTexts that have been assembled for analysis, often by computer-assisted text analysis software\u201d (Seale, 2018, p. 588).<\/p>\r\n
Creative Commons License<\/b><\/p>\r\n
A form of internationally recognized public copyright license issued by the copyright owner to allow use of the copyrighted work in accordance with the license (\u201cAbout CC Licenses,\u201d 2019; \u201cWhat Is a Creative Commons License?,\u201d 2016; Wikipedia contributors, 2022b).<\/p>\r\n
Dedicated OER Policy<\/b><\/p>\r\n
A proposed definition is an exclusively allocated \u201csubset of OER policies that are formally adopted public policies that directly relate to OER\u201d (Allen & Shockey, 2014, p. 2); posited as the intersection of OER and policy. Note that \u201cdedicated OER policy\u201d is treated as a thing with \u201cdedicated\u201d and \u201cOER\u201d as \u201cnoun as adjectives\u201d and the term \u201cpolicy\u201d as a noun, to describe a policy dedicated to OER (Noun as Adjective<\/i>, n.d.; Nouns That Act like Adjectives<\/i>, n.d.).<\/p>\r\n
Distant Reading<\/b><\/p>\r\n
Decomposition and recomposition by hermeneutic focused CAQDAS on and with text rather than direct human to-text reading (Rockwell & Sinclair, 2016).<\/p>\r\n
Distinctive Words<\/b><\/p>\r\n
\u201cHigh frequency words that are relatively unique to a particular document\u201d (Dickerson, 2018, p. 10).<\/p>\r\n
ePublishing<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The abbreviated form of electronic publishing to produce digital reading content (Wikipedia contributors, 2021b).<\/p>\r\n
eTextbook<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The abbreviated form of an electronic textbook or digital textbook that is intended for educational purposes (Wikipedia contributors, 2021a). An extended definition for a digital textbook is:<\/p>\r\nA mix of workbook, reference book, exercise book, case book and manual of instruction based on static hypertext or multimodal text, which meet curricula standards (pedagogic resources) or\/and is an alternative learning tool, located in a digital library accessed through a personal computer or mobile digital device connected to Internet and directed from an educational platform.

The four tenets of FOSS (What Is Free Software?<\/i>, 2022) are:<\/p>\r\n\r\n The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1).

The calculation ((term count in document \/ total tokens in document) * 1000000<\/i>) is the frequency per million words equal to the value of the term count in the document divided by the total tokens in the document multiplied by 1 million (MacDonald, 2022b).

According to Kendal (2022), \u201cit is about being as open as possible, as often as possible, and only being as closed as is necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n Open Source<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cDenoting software for which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified\u201d (Lexico, n.d.).<\/p>\n Policy<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cA course or principle of action adopted or proposed by an organization or individual\u201d (\u201cPolicy,\u201d 2021).<\/p>\n Pressbooks<\/b><\/p>\n A free open source book content management system for Internet ebook and etextbook publishing, developed by Book Oven, Inc. (Pressbooks – Open Publishing. Open Web. Open Source.<\/i>, n.d.; Wikipedia contributors, 2021e). This free and open source software is a plugin to the WordPress blog platform (Zimmerman, 2013\/2018).<\/p>\n Relative Frequency<\/b><\/p>\n Each frequency (i.e., term count) is converted into a value per million words and is called normalising the frequency score that is advantageous when comparing sections of the corpora of different sizes (Lexical Computing, 2021; \u201cRelative Frequency, Frequency per Million,\u201d 2016; Smith, 2014). The calculation ((term count in document \/ total tokens in document) * 1000000<\/i>) is the frequency per million words equal to the value of the term count in the document divided by the total tokens in the document multiplied by 1 million (MacDonald, 2022b). Note that tokens represent words, see the glossary definition for tokens.<\/p>\n Stopwords<\/b><\/p>\n Words that are excluded from a text analysis (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016l). Voyant Tools automatically provide a default list of stopwords that can be customised and saved (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016l).<\/p>\n System<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cA set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network\u201d (\u201cSystem,\u201d 2021).<\/p>\n Tokenization<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cThe process of identifying words, or sequences of Unicode letter characters that should be considered as a unit\u201d (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016g).<\/p>\n Tokens<\/b><\/p>\n \u201cThe number of individual words found in the document\u201d (Sinclair & Rockwell, 2016h).<\/p>\n Transmedia<\/b><\/p>\n Literally \u201cacross media\u201d (Jenkins, 2011). \u201cA phenomenon that transcends media or the boundaries thereof, something that transfers media content, or perhaps a system that crosses the borders of media\u201d (Byun, n.d.). The term is associated with storytelling, such that Jenkins (2011) states that \u201ctransmedia refers to a set of choices made about the best approach to tell a particular story to a particular audience in a particular context depending on the particular resources available to particular producers.\u201d<\/p>\n Unique Word<\/b><\/p>\n A unique word has only one occurrence in the document (Rockwell & Sinclair, 2016, p. 57).<\/p>\n Vocabulary Density<\/b><\/p>\n Unique words divided by total words (Dickerson, 2018, p. 7; Ishaq, 2017, sec.
