دانلود کتاب Distance and E-Learning in Transition

The rushed development of information and communication technologies and their impact on the world of learning in the last decade have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education. The professionalization of tools and practices, in addition to the consolidation of academic and practical knowledge, has been a major continuing issue throughout these years. The annual conferences of the largest European professional community in distance and e-learning have been setting the landmarks in this process. The selection from this unique knowledge pool demonstrates the deepening and consolidation of knowledge and experience. This book presents the developments in the field of open, distance and e-learning, through new technologies, methodologies and tools, which have profoundly changed the paradigms, scenarios and values at all levels of education over the last decade.Content: Chapter 1 Challenges Facing Distance Education in the 21st Century (pages 1–22): Sarah Guri?RosenblitChapter 2 The Evolving Role of Universities (pages 23–34): Anne Gaskell and Roger MillsChapter 3 The Internet and the Education System (pages 35–44): Roni AviramChapter 4 “E?Learning” Meets “Digital Media” (pages 45–56): Jim DevineChapter 5 Preparing Educational Institutions for Online ODL.
