The New Virtual Classroom: Evidence-based Guidelines for Synchronous e-Learning

Praise for The New Virtual Classroom "With a massive shift of organizations moving their training and corporate initiatives online, more people are looking for guidance on how to better use the virtual classroom to help in these efforts. This book details how organizations are not only using the virtual classroom for training, but how organizations are truly accelerating the way they do business and impacting the bottom line with virtual environments." -Eric Vidal, director, Enterprise Business Unit, WebEx Communications "Ruth Clark is well respected for her excellent books for practitioners on how to apply solid research evidence to the design of training programs. In The New Virtual Classroom she systematically tackles the problem of how to design effective virtual classrooms. If you are interested in how to use synchronous virtual classroom technology in a way that is consistent with how people learn and with research evidence, then The New Virtual Classroom belongs on your bookshelf." -Richard E.
