Customer Reviews

Excellent, but where is the CD?

I purchased this book for an online e-Learning class and an getting a tremendous amount helpful information and insight out of it. I am, however, very disappointed that the advertised CD did not come with the book, nor was there any mention of how to get one. The title should not have "(With CD-ROM)" in it any longer. I am fine without a CD, but it was promised... Allen's Guide to e-Learning easily sends a great CD upon request...

WOW!

I was impressed, enlightened and inspired while reading this book. If you are in any way connected to developing training of any type I would highly recommend this book. Training Managers and HR/Manager types can learn much from this book as well. The CD that comes with is a huge help, all in all well worth the price. As a career trainer/educator, I speak from experience to you managers out there...if you are thinking of cutting resources or entirely removing your education department...DON'T!!! Get some folks that are smart, passionate and have read this book!

Must-buy for 'Pedagogist-Technologists'

The people in the e-learning industry could be divided largely into three camps - the Pedagogists, the Technologists and the Pedagogist-Technologists (people who bridge the two apparently divergent worlds). :-)IMHO, Dr Margaret Driscoll is a Pedagogist-Technologist - a wonderfully excellent one! After ploughing through dozens of good and not-so-good books on e-learning, I find this book (which I borrowed from a campus library) a treasure trove. I strongly recommend this book to any serious e-learning practitioner (novice or experienced) who is looking for succinct and practical information, as well as pedagogically and technologically sound tips - this book is loaded with summaries, templates, worksheets, and more.
