Fundamentals of Online Course Development and Delivery

The book is structured into seven chapters and addresses most of the challenges educators encounter when it comes to the effective design and delivery of instructional materials in all learning environments. Chapter 1: Basic Notions of Learning Theories ; Chapter 2: Structure and Processes of the Human Memory; Chapter 3: Classification of Learning Domains and Objectives ; Chapter 4: Instructional Design Models; Chapter 5: Searching Electronic Resources on Internet; Chapter 6: Learning Management Systems; Chapter 7: Basic Steps in Course Creation and Learners Enrolment in Moodle. It is important to note that the chapters are not organised in a hierarchical order thus providing you with a greater flexibility to explore each chapter independently based on your needs. However, it is important to walk through from chapter one. Even if you are familiar with the different topics, there might be something new. This notwithstanding, the psychology of learning upholds that concepts are best mastered when we rehearse existing knowledge.
