What Works in K-12 Online Learning by
Cathy Cavanaugh (Editor),
Robert Blomeyer (Editor) (2007)
ISTE Press
Online learning is education in which instruction and content comprising a
formal course of study are delivered primarily via the Internet. K-12
enrollments in online courses continue to grow, and while there is great
potential in the virtual schools movement, there are many challenges
inherent in this relatively new method of education delivery. What Works in
K-12 Online Learning provides a comprehensive overview of effective online
teaching and learning practices. Based on extensive experience and research,
chapters cover a full spectrum of topics including virtual course
development, online learning in elementary classrooms, differentiating
instruction online, professional development for teachers of virtual
courses, and the challenges that virtual schools will face in the future. Available from
ISTE
Bookstore and
Amazon.com. |
