| Summary |
This book is about the past and future of research on the effectiveness of learning networks (also known as ""e-learning"" or ""online learning"" or ""Web-based learning""). Learning networks are groups of people using computer technology, communicating and collaborating online to build knowledge together. Over the past decade there has been an explosion not only of online courses, but also of studies on them. In Learning Together Online: Research on Asynchronous Learning Networks, leading researchers in the field use an integrated theoretical framework, which they call ""Online Interaction Le |
