Summary
Written by leading technology experts, this book serves as a training guide for assessing online distance learners. The authors believe distance-learning educators must have the same assessment expectations and standards as those in conventional, face-to-face environments. Topics cover how to select what should be assessed, how to use written tests and projects to evaluate the skills learners have achieved, how to provide feedback to distance learners, and how to efficiently use course management software. For future online distance educators.
