This is not a new book. Not at all. But it is a keeper. It outlines phases of engagement during a semester, the ways in which classroom / face-to-face activities can be re-imagined for the online space, new forms of assessment for and of learning and how student projects can be used to create energy and commitment to learning. If you are in the processes of designing courses for the next offering or the summer, then take a look at this book. If you looked at it two or three years ago, look again. It is still very practical and helpful.
