<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"According to recent research, over 30 states offer fully online school and 26 states offer state online high schools. The number of online course offerings is expected to rise as a result of COVID-19. Even before COVID-19 entered the North American lexicon, a survey of 398 school administrators and 1,500 students conducted by BestColleges found that online programs continued to be high demand. As online teaching stands now, faculty often fail to apply teaching research and theory in designing their online courses. One obstacle is the cognitive load of dealing with online technologies. Another is the absence of pedagogy in most online course design standards. The most important one may lie in the books and articles about how to teach online. Many of them are written for technologists and instructional designers and pay little or no attention to online teaching and learning. Unfortunately, these do not equip faculty with a coherent picture of high-quality online teaching"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Bring pedagogy and cognitive science to online learning environments</b></p> <p><i>Online Teaching at Its Best: Merging Instructional Design with Teaching and Learning Research, 2nd Edition, </i>is the scholarly resource for online learning that faculty, instructional designers, and administrators have raved about. This book addresses course design, teaching, and student motivation across the continuum of online teaching modes--remote, hybrid, hyflex, and fully online--integrating these with pedagogical and cognitive science, and grounding its recommendations in the latest research. The book will help you design or redesign your courses to ensure strong course alignment and effective student learning in any of these teaching modes. Its emphasis on evidence-based practices makes this one of the most scholarly books of its kind on the market today.</p> <p>This new edition features significant new content including more active learning formats for small groups across the online teaching continuum, strategies and tools for scripting and recording effective micro-lectures, ways to integrate quiz items within micro-lectures, more conferencing software and techniques to add interactivity, and a guide for rapid transition from face-to-face to online teaching.
