Product Description

Distance education today offers more than teaching and learning online. The growing sophistication and flexibility of synchronous technologies, plus continuing advances and familiarity with their uses, has opened up new opportunities for engaging students and relating with them in a myriad of ways. Honed through years of experience and grounded in distance education research, the tips selected for this book are placed in the respected framework of the instructional design process: pre-planning, planning, developing, implementing, evaluating. You will find here a quick tip that can inspire you as you plan a new course. You will also find ideas that can inform and expand your usage of the exciting options available. Of special interest is the Companion Web site designed to offer depth, additional materials, and a practitioner blog. With the web site, the book, and the blog, the reader has the opportunity to work with print and electronic media to create an innovative plan. The Companion Website and blog are hosted by Instructional Communications Systems of the University of Wisconsin Extension, making available their experience and wealth of information to us all.
