An evidence based, rigorous text reviewing 12 principles of experimental studies grounded in cognitive theory of multi-media learning.
Chatelaine Press has reissued two important books on Public Administration - ACTION THEORY FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION by Michael M. Harmon & ORGANIZATION THEORY FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION by Michael M. Harmon & Richard T. Mayer. In ACTION THEORY, Harmon takes head-on two vexatious problems in public administration: the need to relate theories to practice & the need to integrate values into what many regard as a science. Harmon's action theory begins with the face-to-face encounter that requires a decision, a reaction, or a plan. The purpose of the book is to provide a context for the critical appraisal of public administration theory & practice. The purpose of ORGANIZATIONAL THEORY, is to illu...
This book presents eight evidence-based strategies that promote generative learning, which enables learners to apply their knowledge to new problems.
The essential e-learning design manual, updated with the latest research, design principles, and examples e-Learning and the Science of Instruction is the ultimate handbook for evidence-based e-learning design. Since the first edition of this book, e-learning has grown to account for at least 40% of all training delivery media. However, digital courses often fail to reach their potential for learning effectiveness and efficiency. This guide provides research-based guidelines on how best to present content with text, graphics, and audio as well as the conditions under which those guidelines are most effective. This updated fourth edition describes the guidelines, psychology, and applications ...
During the past 30 years, researchers have made exciting progress in the science of learning (i.e., how people learn) and the science of instruction (i.e., how to help people learn). This second edition of the Handbook of Research on Learning and Instruction is intended to provide an overview of these research advances. With chapters written by leading researchers from around the world, this volume examines learning and instruction in a variety of learning environments including in classrooms and out of classrooms, and with a variety of learners including K-16 students and adult learners. Contributors to this volume demonstrate how and why educational practice should be guided by research ev...
