Developing Innovation in Online Learning introduces action research as a method of developing e-learning modules and courses.The book covers both the theory and practice of applying action research principles to develop online learning
'It is a treasure trove of information, provides the promised framework and is an excellent reference book that should be on the shelf of anyone with a serious interest in online learning,' - Educational Technology and Society'This book is a welcome addition to the growing literature on on-line learning and is a must for all involved in planning, design, development and delivery of on-line courses.' - Sanjaya Mishra, BJET
Disappointing A highly theoretical book for theory's sake. Lots of quotes of others, but lacking real-world examples of proven online education success.. Onlye book of its kind. Anyone who works in DE and would like to conduct research in an structured way should read this book.
