Description
E-Education Applications: Human Factors and Innovative Approaches enforces the need to take multi-disciplinary and/or inter-disciplinary approaches, when solutions for e-education (or online-, e-learning) are introduced. By focusing on the issues that have impact on the usability of e-learning, the book specifically fills-in a gap in this area, which is particularly invaluable to practitioners. The book is aimed at researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government, for an in-depth coverage of a broad range of issues, ideas and practical experiences on this subject. It aims to raise more awareness in this important subject, promote good practice, and share and evaluate experiences (advantages, disadvantages, problems faced and lessons learned).
Reviews and Testimonials
