| Abstract | What does the research tell us about what works well in online learning? Coomey and Stephenson reviewed current research to find out. Designers of online learning, the review reveals, should pay considerable attention to learner control, dialogue, learner support and opportunities for direct learner involvement. There are wide variations, however, in the 'flavour' of these common themes according to the overall purpose of the learning activity, from instructional mode at one extreme to open-ended exploratory mode at the other. The chapter explores the implications of these different modes for the design, structure and management of online learning and proposes a framework to help practitioners locate their own practice and construct appropriate programmes and systems based on lessons from the review. |
