This book shows faculty and students how to integrate good practices in learning, design, and web page technology. Using the web, an educator can provide an active and interesting environment for his or her students to incorporate as part of a traditional classroom, as a supplement to the classroom, or in a distance learning course. The book begins with good practices in teaching and learning. Then it looks for design elements that can be applied to the web and pulls together the practice, design, and web technology. It provides examples of active learning, cohort learning, problem solving, and communication of complex information on the web. For those interested in creating effective web-based learning in class or through distance learning.

The Best So Far !

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2001

I have been involved in distance education for several years. As a person who teaches other faculty to develop Web-based courses as well as being a developer myself, I am constantly on the look out for good books. This, in my opinion, is the best I have seen in the field so far. In addition to being a technologist, I am also a specialist in adult education. There have been other books that are good in that there is one or another chapter that contains good materials. This book is a must for the beginning Web developer, particulalry if you are interested in pedagogical issues and learner-centered instruction.
The chapter dealing with JavaScript is excellent. It is a good introduction to the use of this tool for including student interactivity. What I particulalry like about it is that a non-programmer can use it to get up and running. It is not so in-depth that the average faculty member cannot use it. It leaves out the high-end bells and whistles and yet it allows a person to accomplish something meaningful.
Finally, the references that are included are very good. If you want to cover the topics indepth, you are pointed in a good direction.
