Emphasizing the essentials,

This review is from: Michael Allen's Guide to E-Learning: Building Interactive, Fun, and Effective Learning Programs for Any Company (Paperback)
This book takes e-learning to its core mandate, that of engaging and involving the learners, so that they learn the key skills and knowledge required.An excellent and easy read, with lots of good examples and non-examples, nicely compared side by side.

This book directly applies to your work!,
By Joy Kopp (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Michael Allen's Guide to E-Learning: Building Interactive, Fun, and Effective Learning Programs for Any Company (Paperback)
Dr. Allen is a champion of learner-centric design - and has written a refreshingly reader-centric book about the topic. He understands that learning is an "internal, personal, and ultimately individual act." His words reveal his passions and opinions in such an authentic manner that you can quickly understand his perspective, and extract points of meaning that can directly apply to your work. As a producer and designer of interactive media, I continually find his insights an inspiration.
