Book Chapter in ‘Videoconference in the Service of Life-Long and Distance Learning’ Edited by Dr. P. Anastassiades
Book Chapter in ‘Education for a Digital World: Advice, Guidelines, and Effective Practice from Around the Globe’
Recently published by the Commonwealth of Learning is this edited e-book titled Education for a Digital World - advice, guidelines and effective practice from around the globe. My contribution to this amazing project is Chapter 9 on Quality Assurance by Design (p.111). (Free download e-book).
From Derek’s blog: This 500-page volume contains a comprehensive collection of proven strategies and tools for effective online teaching, based on the principles of learning as a social process. It offers practical, contemporary guidance to support e-learning decision-making, instructional choices, as well as program and course planning, and development.
There are five sections in the book, with contributed chapters under the headings of:
* The impact of Instructional technologies
* Preparing Online Courses
* Implementing Technology
* eLearning in Action
* Engagement and Communication
The book itself has been designed in such a way that it could be used as a handbook for a course on the topic - with each of the 31 very informative chapters introduced with a list of learning outcomes that should be achieved as the reader works his/her way through the chapter.
There’s simply too much in this book for me to do it justice with a brief mention here - suffice to say that there is something of value in here for everyone, from the newcomers to the topic to those who are well down the track.Another excellent piece of work from the Commonwealth of Learning!
