Short Description

To manage the complexity of offering distance learning, educational institutions across the nation are creating new positions in e-learning leadership, often at the vice-president or vice-provost levels.

They need rapid access to an overview of perspectives to consider and tasks to be accomplished or maintained. The book is designed to benefit a broad readership of those interested in educational leadership, be they students, e-learning instructors and administrators, or those who supervise e-learning administrators. Graduate students studying educational technology and/or educational administration and leadership are sure to benefit from its contents. To gain the administrative skills needed to build an effective office, this book's authors provide indispensable guidance for prioritizing tasks and meeting challenges.
