Excellent text I've used for my graduate students

I am a professor of educational technology. I've used this book for 2 semesters with a graduate students in an educational technology masters program. It was the primary text for a course on the design of online learning environments. Each semester I asked my students in their anonymous course evaluations to give me feedback on this book. There has been almost unanimous praise for this book from students. I have been satisfied with it as well. It is organized logically, moving from the conceptual to the highly practical. Each chapter begins with a set of diverse case examples that create a context for the following content, helping to make it more relevant and tangible to the reader. The book thoroughly cites it's sources including much research. My students used the concepts and guidelines in this book to work on a handful of increasingly complex projects in which they conceptualized and designed online learning modules and environments. The book was a great resource for them. They all felt it was written at an appropriate level for them (my students are mostly working K-12 teachers). I recommend this book.
