Product Description
Review
'Teachers are likely to find the book accessible, and anything which encourages them to try out the e-learning medium, and emphasizes the educational benefits of communication, is to be applauded. There are some great nuggets in E-tivities.' - Innovations in Education and Teaching International
'Another classic how-to book from an expert in the field. This book will provide ideas and stimuli to online tutors everywhere. It is a hype-free zone, full of practical, tried and tested approaches to engaging learners in online discussion.' - Professor Robin Mason
‘E-tivities really is a marvellous handbook. A practical guide to the new e-learning, it takes the angst out of online tutoring and provides a much-needed comfort zone. E-tivities is the craft of e-moderating made easy.’
Dale Spender
Product Description
Beyond the hype of online learning lies a straightforward question: how do you really deliver worthwhile learning online? This book, based on action research, provides a simple answer to this fundamental question by exploring a key technique that enables teachers and learners to use available technologies happily and successfully.
So, what are e-tivities? They are motivating, engaging, purposeful activities developed and led by an e-moderator. They are frameworks for active and interactive online learning. E-tivities are in the hands of the teachers themselves and promote active e-learning.
This is not a book about the technology of online learning. Practical, accessible and direct, it looks at personalizing and customizing teaching and learning. Written for use in any topic, subject or course, E-tivities explores:
- the importance of activities in online learning;
- designing and running e-tivities;
- the five-stage model of teaching and learning online.
Backed up extensive illustrations and case studies, and including a unique collection of 35 Resources for Practitioners, this is a book for all professionals involved in online learning.
This book explores e-tivities, the name I give to frameworks for enhancing active and participative online learning by individuals and groups. Read the first page

Very useful,
By A Customer
This review is from: E-Tivities: The Key to Active Online Learning (Paperback)
I bought this book after reading Gilly Salmon's 'E-Moderating' book. I found that Gilly cut through the hype of e-learning and tackled the real business of moderating an online course - recognizing that 99% of the process is not about technology, but about how you go about doing it.This book is just as good, outlining activities which, through action research techniques, stimulate online learning. I'd recommend this book to anyone working in the field of online learning - there are lots of great practical ideas and I'll certainly be putting them to use in my work.
