Also on behalf of Helen Davies. This is a link to the abstract of a review of Online Communication and Collaboration: A Reader.

I am posting this on behalf of Helen Davies. Please have a look at this website. In particular, check out the Activities of Initial grounding; eLearning starting points; Claims about eLearning and Developing eLearning. They are all very useful (PDF format so can download) all CC licenced.

Looking at these I think they would be helpful if we wanted to use them, as they seem to be activities that can be undertaken as part of a unit on online learning.

Looking at this is is good for e learning but appears to be classroom based activities, a wealth of information though. Could be adapted with work to an online course.

An interesting website that has lots of links to theory, online design etc.
