Online education: books just in

January 17, 2021

In the last two days I’ve received two books for review. One is almost hot off the press — Online Learning for Dummies was published in December 2020 — the other one is slightly warm — published in September 2020. I will be reviewing them in due course.

In the meantime, here are the books should you wish to explore them for yourself. If you click on the cover in each case, it will take you to the book on Amazon. If you go onto buy the book through that link, I will receive a small percentage of the purchase price at no extra cost to you.

While you are waiting for those reviews to appear, you may be interested in reading my article on hybrid learning. I published it on 14 January in the Digital Education Supplement, and have updated and expanded it since. The Digital Education Supplement is free to subscribers of my newsletter Digital Education, which is also free.


If you found this article interesting and useful, why not subscribe to my free newsletter, Digital Education? It’s been going since the year 2000, and has news, views and reviews for Computing and ed tech teachers — and useful tips.

Is The computing Curriculum Too Masculine? Revisited 16 years later!

One of the apparently insoluble problems of the age is how do you encourage more girls to take up Computing? I think a lot can be done, and have done so myself, but I wonder how far a lot of the effort fails to get to the heart of the issue, which could be the curriculum itself, the way it is taught, or a combination of the two?
