"This is a must-read for every student, lecturer and professor. It
establishes Internet Studies as essential to an understanding of
how learners and educators can capture the value of our networked
world." Professor William H. Dutton, Director of the Oxford
Internet Institute, University of Oxford In E-learning Theory and
Practice the authors set out different perspectives on e-learning.
The book deals with the social implications of e-learning, its
transformative effects, and the social and technical interplay that
supports and directs e-learning. The authors present new
perspectives on the subject by: - exploring the way teaching and
learning are changing with the presence of the Internet and
participatory media - providing a theoretical grounding in new
learning practices from education, communication and information
science - addressing e-learning in terms of existing learning
theories, emerging online learning theories, new literacies, social
networks, social worlds, community and virtual communities, and
online resources - emphasising the impact of everyday electronic
practices on learning, literacy and the classroom, locally and
globally. This book is for everyone involved in e-learning.
Teachers and educators will gain an understanding of new learning
practices, and learners will gain a sense of their new role as
active participants in classroom and lifelong learning. Graduate
students and researchers will gain insight into the direction of
research in this new and exciting area of education and the
Internet.
The new edition of The SAGE Handbook of E-Learning Research retains
the original effort of the first edition by focusing on research
while capturing the leading edge of e-learning development and
practice. Chapters focus on areas of development in e-learning
technology, theory, practice, pedagogy and method of analysis.
Covering the full extent of e-learning can be a challenge as
developments and new features appear daily. The editors of this
book meet this challenge by including contributions from leading
researchers in areas that have gained a sufficient critical mass to
provide reliable results and practices. The 25 chapters are
organised into six key areas: 1. THEORY 2. LITERACY & LEARNING
3. METHODS & PERSPECTIVES 4. PEDAGOGY & PRACTICE 5. BEYOND
THE CLASSROOM 6. FUTURES
