Learning Online: What Research Tells Us About Whether, When and How

This book explores some key developments in online learning – self-paced, adaptive instruction, competency-based learning, blended learning, learning analytics, and MOOCs – and their implications for learning systems, organizations and students. Full of examples and cases, it provokes policy-makers and administrators to think about what is next. Grounded in practice – there is not much speculation here – it will help policy-makers think back from the future and shape the actions they take now.
