To WBT or not to WBT
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I am an instructional designer for a software development company in Boston. We have at least four copies of Ms. Driscoll's book in the department. It's given us a common vocabulary and structure for planning our WBT training strategy. It's helping us make decisions on when to use WBT, and which WBT tools we should use for various training programs. Highly recommended.
Use this as a guide for your development !

If you are planning any type of computer training, this book can serve as a step by step guide. It has worksheets and practical guidelines in the book that are replicated in a Microsoft Word format on the CD so that you can simply copy and use the format. They even include demonstrative PowerPoint presentations on the CD to help you setup kick-off meetings, design team meetings and an executive overview strategy.
Outstanding learning aid AND toolkit
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Web-Based Training by Driscoll is outstanding because it puts the mechanics of web-based training into the context of good learning design. Too often the principles of instructional design are ommitted from resouces like this one. Driscoll provides the reader with the needed conceptual understanding, and then follows through with practical "how-to" tools to guide the reader through the process. Superb resource.
A wonderful tool, guide and reference!

This book is essential for developing web-based instruction. The worksheets and checklists provide the guidelines necessary for meeting project deadlines as well as the information necessary for success. "Web-Based Training" supplies the novice with the fundamentals and the professional with educational reminders and helpful tools. I would recommend this book to anyone who is creating, developing or evaluating web-based training.
The web-based training book for everyone!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
As far as I know, this is the first book on this subject that's equally useful for tech and non-tech folks. Most other web-based training books have lots of technical detail -- and they become obsolete in three months!But Driscoll sticks to core points (gauging the needs of your learners, etc.), so her book has a "timeless" feel. Anyone interested in investigating web-based training should pick up this book. It's a classic!
