Continuing to Engage the Online Learner

Contributing to both the theoretical and practical literature,
Continuing to Engage the Online Learner expands on the work
of Conrad and Donaldson's bestselling Engaging the Online
Learner. This next-step resource introduces a new phase to
their proven model, the Phases of Engagement, and addresses a wide
range of online and hybrid learning environments, technology tools,
and communication styles.

Comprehensive in scope, the book provides an introduction to the
theory of engaged learning and its design, assessment, and
management in online and blended learning environments and
describes the types of activities that motivate the online learner
in each phase of engagement. This down-to-earth resource also
includes 50 new and illustrative activities paired with each phase
of engagement. In Continuing to Engage the Online Learner
Rita-Marie Conrad and J. Ana Donaldson provide relevant and
theoretically-sound information to enhance teaching and engage
learners, offering a practical handbook for instructors.

"Conrad and Donaldson have done it again! Not only have they
presented a solid and useful discussion of the phases of
engagement, they have brought the theory alive through the
presentation of practical activities that would work well in any
online or hybrid course." --Rena Palloff, faculty, Fielding
