| Class number: | 378.1 | Abstract: | This book about distance education and leadership is the first in a series of books about online learning and education published by Stylus. Plans for forthcoming books include such subjects as quality assurance, culture and online learning, access for disabled students, teaching science, and teaching online in elementary and secondary (K-12) schools. This series aims to fill a gap in the literature, the space between the academic scholarly research literature, such as my own American Journal of Distance Education on the one hand, and on the other hand, the vast swamp of information awaiting the student on the internet, minimally organized, and with no mechanisms for control of quality. Students and especially practicing instructors at the K-12 level, in colleges and universities, and training in the workplace have been asking for a new resource that is authoritative but also accessible. | Contents note: | Leading change; E- learning and the transformation of higher education; The impact of organizational context; Leading change in the mainstream; Leadership is personal; Ensuring operational excellence; Enhancing e- learning effectiveness; Supporting faculty success in online learning; Optimizing student success through student support services; Moving into the technology mainstream; Operational leadership in a strategic context; Sustaining the innovation; Policy leadership in e- learning; Leading beyond the institution; Foreseeing an actionable future; | Record link: | https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=16052 |
