Description
Book SynopsisBooks and articles on instructional design in online learning aboundbut rarely do we get such a comprehensive picture of what instructionaldesigners do, how they do it, and the problems they solve as theiruniversity changes. Power documents the emergence of an adaptedinstructional design model for transforming courses from single-mode todual-mode instruction, making this designer’s log a uniquecontribution to the field of online learning.
Trade ReviewI believe this book to be more valuable than a stack of academic articles for novice designers... they can use the kind of practical wisdom and previously unwritten advice this book gives. - Andrew S. Gibbons, Chair, Instructional Psychology & Technology, Brigham Young University This book reads like a personal journal, but packs a universal punch. - Peggy Ertmer, Professor, Educational Technology Department, Purdue University
