Reviews

"...introduces the reader to some of the key international developers who are designing instructional settings to improve education and add to our knowledge of instructional-learning theory....through the many applications presented in the 18 chapters, the reader can appreciate the bidirectional effect of research on new developments in both practice and theory....this book is full of new approaches to learning and instruction and is an important addition to your personal library."
—Journal of Computing in Higher Education"The editors of this fine book have been working cooperatively on topics in instructional psychology and technology for a long time. I recommend this book for use in seminars dealing with instructional design and technology. Each chapter presents foundational information that is valuable for the novice reader while presenting case studies for the advanced scientist. As such, the book serves as a reference guide for the international instructional design field."
—Journal of Educational Computing Research"There is much here that is of interest, importance, and relevance for a wide range of educationists and researchers....it is likely to that many of those involved in the design and use of technology-supported learning environments will find useful reading here."
—British Educational Research Journal
