Book Description
This books answers some of the most basic questions surrounding the evaluation of e-learning including:
§ Does your e-learning work?
§ How much does your e-learning project benefit your organization and your learners?
§ Is e-learning a wise investment or a waste of corporate resources?
§ And how can you improve your e-learning efforts?
The book approaches the answers to these questions in easy-to-understand language without needless technical detail. This practical approach extends to the book's unique interactive Your Turn sections designed to let the reader practice concepts that will be used later in their own organizations. In addition, the author includes links to a web site that allow readers to down load valuable forms, worksheets, and other aides to help the reader apply the concepts covered in the book.
