About the Book

Web-Based Instruction details how faculty members can design web-based and web-assisted instructional delivery approaches to provide students with the opportunity to learn anytime and anyplace. It stresses the paradigm shift in using technology as an alternative instructional delivery tool but recognizes that the course design and delivery method must maintain the principles of good teaching practices and academic rigor. The book examines how to win student respect and trust, provide support systems, and transition from the classroom-based approach, and it includes examples of course designs, as well as student feedback systems. James Van Keuren takes the frustration out of designing and implementing alternative instructional delivery approaches that do not rely on face-to-face contact. He also creates a step-by-step process for shifting from a teacher-centered to a more student-centered learning environment.

About the Author :

He has worked in the public education sector for 30 years as a teacher, principal, superintendent, assistant state superintendent, and interim state superintendent for the Ohio Department of Education.

Review :
Dr. Keuren's book provides practical advice, reads quickly, and is very approachable. As such, it may be worthwhile for those who are interested in getting their feet wet with online teaching and learning, and it may serve as a refresher to those who have already taught an online course. Web-Based Instruction could be used by both those who instruct and those who develop training. James Van Keuren uses a conversational tone to walk you through his experience of moving from the classroom to the computer screen, explaining techniques he currently uses and why. His tables and lists show you how to quickly adapt classroom techniques into successful online techniques-how to go from teacher-centered to student-centered. If you want to convert existing courses online,Web-Based Instruction acts as a guide, offering tips, suggestions, and examples in personable and easily undertandable prose.
