e-Learning by Design

I am creating some online training material and purchased about 7 books on the subject and this was the most engaging, comprehensive, and easy to read book by a long shot. This is the standard that all other e-learning books should be judged by. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in e-learning.

From William Horton — a world renowned expert with more than thirty-five years of hands-on experience creating networked-based educational systems — comes the next-step resource for e-learning training professionals. Like his best-selling book Designing Web-Based Training, this book is a comprehensive resource that provides practical guidance for making the thousand and one decisions needed to design effective e-learning.

e-Learning by Design includes a systematic, flexible, and rapid design process covering every phase of designing e-learning. Free of academic jargon and confusing theory, this down-to-earth, hands-on book is filled with hundreds of real-world examples and case studies from dozens of fields.

"Like the book's predecessor (Designing Web-based Training), it deserves four stars and is a must read for anyone not selling an expensive solution. — From Training Media Review, by Jon Aleckson, www.tmreview.com, 2007
