The authors provide the reader a social and political context for thinking about global education.\" —Roberto Muffoletto, Appalachian State University      \"Global Perspectives on E-Learning is a fascinating expedition on the road to democratizing online\/distance learning through the dichotomy of rhetoric and social realities in countries around the world.\" —Paul Gathercoal, California Lutheran University      \"I think this is an excellent text. It provides the reader with a broad international perspective of distance education, something that is in short supply.\" —Chris Zirkle, College of Education, Ohio State University     E-learning is growing around the world, with applications from schools to non-profits to business and industry and, of course, higher education. It has been heralded as the next democratizing force in education for offering access regardless of physical limitations, job status, geography, etc. It has also been challenged as representative of the myth of meritocracy for exacerbating the view that education alone rectifies failures to meet social needs. Further, the financial incentive to privatize education leads many to question its democratic merits. Global Perspectives on E-Learning: Rhetoric and Reality presents several cases of international online education and the rhetoric that surrounds this form of teaching and learning.      Editor Alison A. Carr-Chellman examines the impact of online distance education throughout the world in an effort to understand more deeply the merits of such initiatives. Written from a critical perspective, the book sheds light on some of the problems faced by international distance educators. It particularly focuses on who benefits, and who does not, by the advance of international e-learning and how we can respond to the needs of the disenfranchised. This book is intended to supplement what has to this point been largely a positive, how-to literature in distance education. It offers a balanced perspective on the problems and possibilities of distance education worldwide.      Global Perspectives on E-Learning is perfectly suited as a supplemental text for a variety of graduate-level education courses. Professional educators, policy makers, and anyone interested in international online education should consider this a vital addition to their libraries.

The first edition introduced a new, common-sense model of instructional design to take K-12 teachers through the ID process step by step, with a special emphasis on preparing, motivating, and encouraging new and ongoing use of ID principles. This second edition includes new material on design in gaming, cybercharters, online classrooms, and flipped classrooms, as well as special considerations for the Common Core.  Each chapter contains framing questions, common errors, easy-to-use rules of thumb, clearly stated outcomes, and examples showing ID in action. The basic model and its application within constructivism and user-design will help teachers adapt from a behavioral approach to a more open, student-centered design approach. Combining basics with strategies to implement this model in the most advanced instructional approaches, this book empowers teachers and learners to use good instructional design with the most recent research-based approaches to learning.  Instructional Design for Teachers shows how ID principles can impact instructional moments in positive and practical ways. The book can be used for basic ID courses and introductory curriculum courses, and is accessible to in-service as well as pre-service teachers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49732459888913,"sku":"NGR9781138776814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50683985363217,"sku":"CIN1138776815G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51020155552017,"sku":"NIN9781138776814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52434541773073,"sku":"NLS9781138776814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":53613815398673,"sku":"CIN1138776815A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1138776815.jpg?v=1750951811"},{"product_id":"issues-in-technology-learning-and-instructional-design-book-alison-a-carr-chellman-9781138897892","title":"Issues in Technology, Learning, and Instructional Design","description":"In Issues in Technology, Learning, and Instructional Design, some of the best known scholars in the field produce powerful dialogues that clarify current issues, provide context and theoretical grounding, and illuminate a framework for future thought.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49785829622033,"sku":"CIN1138897892VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49859464888593,"sku":"CIN1138897892G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51191004135697,"sku":"NIN9781138897892","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51383011541265,"sku":"NGR9781138897892","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52684512035089,"sku":"NLS9781138897892","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1138897892.jpg?v=1750854959"},{"product_id":"user-design-book-alison-a-carr-chellman-9780805855043","title":"User Design","description":"Aimed at students and practitioners of instructional design (ID), this text makes a case for engaging users in the creation of their own systems of learning and offers practical guidance for accomplishing this.
