Summary:
Price's book offers the quality of students' feedback about distance learning is very important. An understanding of quality to feedback begins with an appreciation of the role of distance learning course tutors and the education models which can usefully guide them. Quality also relies upon a close evaluation of support to students as courses are planned, launched and then monitored through course boards or their equivalent.

Summary:
This book offers that support for student learning is a key element in optimizing student learning experiences in any learning environment and its importance has been widely discussed. Three categories of support were identified and used for the purpose of this study: instructional, peer, and technical support. A total of 110 students completed an online survey on students' perceptions of support and course satisfaction in an undergraduate online course at a large southeastern university. The results showed perceived support was significantly related to their overall satisfaction of the online course.

Summary:
This book introduces that there's many forms of e-learning. It has become an important part in distance learning. However, nonconstructive design principles are difficult to implement because developers must be able to predict how students perceive the tasks and whether the tasks motivate the students.It presents a study that provides increased insight into the actual perception of electronic authentic learning tasks.

Summary:
In this book, an initial theory of online learning as online participation is suggested. It is argued that online learner participation is a complex process of taking part and maintaining relations with others. And it is supported by physical and psychological tools. Thirdly, it is not synonymous with talking or writing. Fourthly, it is supported by all kinds of engaging activities. Participation and learning are argued to be inseparable and jointly constituting. The implication of the theory is straightforward: If we want to enhance online learning, we need to enhance online learner participation.

Excellent resources for your topic, but you'll need to double check the APA format using the APA Style cheat sheet to correct the errors. The annotations were well done.
ReplyDeleteYou'll want to correct the APA style before the Annotated Bibliography is due later this semester.
