Faculty Training for Web Enhanced Learning

Faculty Training for Web Enhanced Learning Synopsis

The pedagogy of faculty members is usually characterised by spontaneity, developed first as a student and later as a teacher. Teachers, especially those at the higher education level, hardly ever have the opportunity to approach instructional design methodologies. While this limit can be ignored in the case of traditional classroom activities, it cannot be when a teacher chooses to adopt Web-Enhanced Learning (WEL) strategies. This book examines the reasons why faculty members' training in WEL is one of the keys to improving the quality and pedagogical sustainability of ICT use in higher education.
