Editorial Reviews

Review
"Finkelstein presents skills needed by online facilitators…" (PsycCritiques, April 11 2007)

Review
"Good instruction is all about people. Learning in Real Time focuses on people, relationships, and the power of human dialog. Instructors, learning technologists, and administrators will benefit from Finkelstein's commentary and common sense."
—Diana G. Oblinger, vice president, EDUCAUSE

"Jam-packed with extremely practical strategies and well-crafted activity ideas, Learning in Real Time goes well beyond the tools and deftly focuses on the process of effective live online learning and collaboration. Anyone teaching, presenting, coaching, or collaborating online will end up with a marked-up, highlighted, and dog-eared copy of this book parked next to their computer."
—Alan Levine, The New Media Consortium (NMC)

"Finkelstein's real-world guidance on real-time learning advances the cause of quality instruction–online and offline. This book represents an important contribution to the field."
—Deborah L.G. Hutti, associate vice president for educational services, Lake Land College

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Overview, but Not a How-To Guide, October 13, 2007
By Julie Rodriguez (Moorhead, MN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book does a great job of giving an overview of the current state of synchronous learning, both technologies and experiences. The book does not question the value of online synchronous learning, but serves as a proponent and guide to the possibilities. There are also some good ideas on activities that can be done online and how to manage the environment. However, it is not intended to be a how-to guide or a recipe book on how to get a class up and running.
