Good hints and strategies... I am giving 5 stars because I think this is a good book, easy to read, and has some great hints and strategies in it. It's probably good for the first time online learner. To me, however, it was a bit simplistic...probably because I've have `been around the block'. I am great with organizing and prioritizing so some of the chapters weren't really for me. Still, I think that many people will find valuable hints regarding making online learning fun and meaningful. The section on preparing your computer is also very helpful.
If you are unsure about online learning, this book is certain to help you.
An essential companion Not only is the online classroom a new environment for learning, it is also one for which few learners have been formally prepared. While texts such as Becoming a Master Student have successfully outlined techniques for operating within the traditional classroom, it has not been until E-Learning Companion that learners have been afforded tactics for succeeding with online coursework. Watkins and Corry's text powerfully demonstrate that by integrating online learning skills with student success skills learners can better ensure their success in online learning environments. Rife with tutorials, activities, and self-assessments, E-Learning Companion is an essential resource for online learners and instructors alike.
