Editorial Reviews

Review

Collaborating Online eloquently explains the central role that community and collaboration play in fostering student engagement online. Palloff and Pratt also offer faculty a rich collection of practical strategies—ideas that are straightforward to implement. It is the best book I have read to date on the topic.”
--Gail Matthews-DeNatale, senior instructional designer, Academic Technology, Simmons College

“This book was an aha! experience for me. After all these years, I finally gained a blueprint for assessing collaborative learning effectively and fairly. I also kept nodding in agreement as I read the book: Palloff and Pratt present numerous practical examples of what an online classroom should be like.”
--Karen Hodges, vice president for learning, NorthWest Arkansas Community College

“Palloff and Pratt, the distinguished online learning authorities, have done it again with their latest book, Collaborating Online. This is must-reading for all faculty, instructional designers, and academic administrators interested in improving student retention and success in online courses.”
--Jack A. Chambers, director, program development for instructional technology, Florida Community College at Jacksonville



Product Description

Collaborating Online provides practical guidance for faculty seeking to help their students work together in creative ways, move out of the box of traditional papers and projects, and deepen the learning experience through their work with one another. Authors Rena Palloff and Keith Pratt draw on their extensive knowledge and experience to show how collaboration brings students together to support the learning of each member of the group while promoting creativity and critical thinking. Collaborating Online is the second title in the Jossey-Bass Guides to Online Teaching and Learning. This series helps higher education professionals improve the practice of online teaching and learning by providing concise, practical resources focused on particular areas or issues they might confront in this new learning environment.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Handbook for Online Students and Teachers, November 9, 2006
With today's lifestyle, more and more students are opting to study online. This text is for the teacher who wants to teach online. It is more or less a handbook of setting up and running an online class. I would recoemmend this text to anyone who wants to teach on online class or wants to be a student for an online class. Both teachers and students can benefit from this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Succinct and to the point, February 15, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I am using this book for a course in Fostering Online Learning Communities and I love it. It is an easy read, very well organized, authoritative, and full of useful tips despite the limited research on this emerging topic. Well worth the small price.
