Online learning can be so dull--or not!Enter Jenae Cohn and Michael Greer, experienced authors andteachers, who decided it was time to take on the challenge of making online learning more interesting and compellingfor students. So, they met in a Zoom call, contacted Rosenfeld Media, and wrote this book, Design for Learning: UserExperience in Online Teaching and Learning (many Zoom calls later). The book is structured to teach online learning in such a way that anyone can follow its practices and create a dynamic educational presentation. Chapters cover everything fromlearning about your learners and setting learning goals to building connections with learners and giving them feedback. In addition, the authors dive into the nitty-gritty details of creating online courses, including takeaways at the endof each chapter and easy-to-follow examples throughout."I particularly appreciate how thoughtful Jenae and Michael are about considering the experience from the learner's point of view and theemphasis they put on learner agency."--Julie Dirksen, Author, Design for How People LearnTogether, Jenae Cohn and Michael Greer have years of experience designing and producing online courses for students.
