Review

"Building the Successful Online Course is by far the most practical guide that I have seen to date. I appreciate the commitment to academic integrity and the focus on learning that flow throughout the book. Further, there is something for everyone in this book. First-time online teachers can get some sort of idea of what lies ahead and how to prepare for it. Experienced online teachers can identify with each section and can glean new ideas and approaches to the craft. Chris Boyett Vice-President of the Arkansas Distance Learning Association"
