	Using Contextual Instruction to make Abstract Learning Concrete (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Contextual instruction has traditionally been used in career and technical classes, and the value of such instructional methods in these courses has been demonstrated by hands-on experience in a shop or laboratory.
		On the other hand, when contextual instructional methods have been used in academic classes, it has historically been in low-expectation courses with peripheral references to career and technical applications—that is, courses for low-achieving and/or low-ability students.
		Contextual learning presents abstractions by methods that appeal to the functions of the five physical senses—seeing, hearing, smelling, touching and tasting.

	II Journal: Extending Contextual Expertise
		By advancing contextual expertise—expertise in the languages, cultures, histories, and institutions of particular nations and world regions—these centers and programs enhance the capacity of the faculty, students, and staff to engage the world's diverse vernaculars and institutions and the movement of peoples and practices across the world.
		Contextual expertise comes to be valued to the extent that privileged institutions value the problems or treasures of another place, and are willing to invest to learn how to avoid its threat, or to harness its insights.
		Exploring the relationship between contextual expertise and global public relevance might offer a framework that helps us move beyond enrollments and local pressures, and helps us to define our commitments to diversity with a system of accounting that befits a university of the world.

	Marketers Split on Contextual Ad Effectiveness
		Despite early criticism of contextual ads, more marketers are turning to them to extend the reach of their search campaigns.
		Some advertisers have found contextual ads to be useful in certain situations, for certain clients, or when used in certain ways.
		A common use of contextual ads is to extend the reach of a search campaign that has "hit a wall" of traffic on relevant keywords.

	Contextual Theologizing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Such contextual mindset is not realized by adding some new subjects about contextual theology in a traditional curriculum of theological education, but by a restructuring of it so that all the subjects support the main concern of contextual theologizing.
		Contextual theologizing requires attentiveness to the ever changing contexts of societies in which we live as well as to the advances in the various theological disciplines.
		Contextual theologizing, because of its inclusive character, may be a fruitful way to transcend the historically-caused divide in churches between a theologically educated clergy and a theologically non-educated laity.

	Contextual inquiry and field studies (User experience design resources)
		Contextual inquiry is basically a structured field interviewing method, based on a few core principles that differentiate this method from plain, journalistic interviewing.
		Contextual enquiry is a technique for examining and understanding users and their workplace, tasks, issues and preferences.

	NYC Zoning - Glossary
		Contextual zoning districts regulate the height and bulk of new buildings, their setback from the street line, and their width along the street frontage, to produce buildings that are consistent with existing neighborhood character.
		Medium- and higher-density residential and commercial districts with an A, B, D or X suffix are contextual districts.
		The position of a building setback in height factor districts is controlled by sky exposure planes and, in contextual districts, by specified distances from street walls.

	Contextual Learning
		Part of the workshop was spent reading and researching the concept of contextual teaching, another part provided a one-day internship in a business setting related to a subject the participant taught, yet another part allowed time for synthesis and application of learned concepts in the form of the unit plans that follow.
		The units are based on the notion that contextual learning "marks an educational philosophy and an educational strategy that centers on enabling students to find meaningfulness in their education" (Parnell, 1995, p.
		Please feel free to contact me (charrell@kennesaw.edu) or the author of a particular unit. No untaught unit is perfect, and as the teachers implement their work in the actual classroom, they will refine and update, but your knowledge can richen their work as teachers and the students as learners.

	Center for Occupation Research and Development - What is Contextual Learning?
		Contextual learning is a proven concept that incorporates much of the most recent research in cognitive science.
		The contextual approach recognizes that learning is a complex and multifaceted process that goes far beyond drill-oriented, stimulus-and-response methodologies.
		According to contextual learning theory, learning occurs only when students (learners) process new information or knowledge in such a way that it makes sense to them in their own frames of reference (their own inner worlds of memory, experience, and response).

	What is contextual advertising? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		A contextual ad system scans the text of a Web site for keywords and returns ads to the Web page based on what the user is viewing, either through ads placed on the page or pop-up ads.
		Contextual advertising also is used by search engines to display ads on their search results pages based on what word(s) the users has searched for.
		Contextual advertising has attracted some controversy through the use of techniques such as third-party hyperlinking, where a third-party installs software onto a user’s computer that interacts with the browser by turning keywords on a Web page into links that lead to advertisers that are not paying the Web site to advertise on its pages.

	Google Throws Hat Into The Contextual Advertising Ring
		Contextual advertising isn't new, yet in preparing to write this article, I also failed to find any good definitions for it.
		For me, contextual advertising is when ads are delivered based on the content of a web page that's being viewed, usually in an automated or semi-automated manner.
		I've seen some posts from those discussing Google's move into contextual ads as saying this shows the company is no longer solely about search, which it always said it would be.

	CETE - About CETE
		Contextualizing learning by providing instruction directly related to the life experiences or functional contexts of adult learners (Sandlin 2000) grows out of this constructivist approach to learning.
		Both studies found that the practice of contextual learning tended to reflect technical-rational interpretations of knowledge and that the contexts selected reflected teachers’, policymakers’, or curriculum developers’ ideas of how the knowledge would be used and applied within that context.
		Contextual learning should be a tool for helping adults reflect on and make changes in their lives.

	South African Contextual & Black Theology
		Probably the key institutional voice of the Contextualizing theologians was the South African Council of Churches.
		The SACC was served by a series of extremely able Contextualizing theologians, beginning with Desmond Tutu who was its general secretary from 1978-1985.
		Perhaps the greatest work of the Contextualizing theologians has been guiding the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which began to meet in February of 1996 under the leadership of Desmond Tutu, and turned in its "final" report in October of 1998.

		While automated contextual ad services take the hassle out of selling advertisements for small publishers or bloggers, they might not perform that well for medium-sized sites that aren't focused on very specific commercial niches or cover more strategic or philosophical subject mattter.

	SearchViews : The Four Types of Contextual Advertising
		Channel-based contextual can be extremely helpful in allowing a brand-based client to extend its reach across a web of content associated with a certain behavioral profile (making this the closest parallel to the demographic planning of traditional media).
		There will be more resistance to this form of contextual advertising, as the advertiser can't see anything that plays into their targeting, and has little chance of accessing their ad on demand.
		Knowing the differences across contextual ad types can help marketers more effectively leverage this medium for their campaigns, and quite possibly deal with the exponential increase in sales calls you'll receive from players which seem to be popping up every hour.
