GETTING THE MOST FROM ONLINE LEARNING

George M. Piskurich

This text is a companion volume for Preparing Learners for E-Learning, but it emphasizes information important to the learner, as opposed to the organization- and instructor-orientation of the other volume. Twelve chapters prepare prospective online learners for their experiences with synchronous and asynchronous learning environments. Other topics include the use of chat rooms and discussion boards, online readings, peer evaluations, and group projects.
