– Shalin Hai-Jew, Kansas State University, USA

Because faculty and staff work in a do-it-yourself environment, [the] emphasis is on practical methods for acquiring and creating digital imagery for online learning, with an overview of related pedagogical theories, visual literacy, and instructional design. Chapters cover types and practical applications of graphics in online learning, then explore capturing and authoring tools for graphics, the creation of game and simulation spaces, collaborative image creation, and storage and access issues.
