"I have been participating since last summer in the Learning Resources Network (LERN) program for certification as an online instructor. I have taken four courses for this certification so far and have read four textbooks on online instruction. By far 'A Fieldbook for Community College Online Instructors' offers the most practical and overall helpful information in one book of those I have read."
