4.0 out of 5 stars
Fast and friendly overview of web-based instruction,
By Mr. A. Wentzel "Arnold Wentzel" (Cresta, South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Trainer's Guide to Web-Based Instruction (Learning Technologies) (Paperback)
Tackling a new subject can often be intimidating, unless you have someone to introduce you to the basics. This book does just that. It is short, which means you can gain a general overview of web-based instruction (WBI) within an evening. The book starts by discussing the nature of WBI in general - very helpful is the comparison to classroom-based courses. It then moves on to basic presentation issues such as web page design. It presents the possibilities without getting technical. In the following chapter it looks at the ways in which interaction can take place with students, and finally moves on to the broader issues of internet course management. You will find "Practical Tips" boxes throughout that provide valuable guidance. Also very helpful are the web-based activities and numerous websites the author refers to, and this allows you to experience first-hand the topics discussed. In short, if you are new to WBI and want a foundation to start from, this book will serve that purpose. I thought just one thing was missing - a discussion of the significance and possible future impact of the internet on the way we educate and our thinking around it.
