Book Synopsis
Taking as a model the 8-year-old Internet-based master's program at the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, U. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, contributors from that school and others in the US provide an introduction to the social and educational phenomena that occur in the socio-technical environments that support online learners. The 17 essays explore best practices and offer insights related to the technology, culture, and folklore of distance education. The work would have benefited from a subject index.
