Summary
Summary
′Online learning is growing rapidly as a discipline and in terms of its influence on education and training. Many activities that seemed impossible a decade ago - such as person to person online video - are now common place. The last five years have produced dramatic change in how individuals interact with each other and with information. This publication provides among the best theorizing, research, and implementation on online learning. Those who are new to technology in learning will find it a wonderful starting point. Those with extensive experience in online learning will find it to be an excellent foundation to revisit′ - George Siemens, Athabasca University, Canada
With the recent emergence of Web 2.0 technologies and the widespread use and availability of laptop computers and wireless networks, the integration of digital technologies is increasingly seen as an inevitable factor in e-Learning and education.

It also investigates the direction of e-Learning in the digital age. Consisting of approximately 85 articles, the five parts focus on:
Part One: Professional Development and Training
Part Two: Digital Pedagogies

Part Four: New and Emerging Technologies
Part Five: Online Assessment
