Reviews

From the book reviews:

“This book is another professional entry from Springer. It is well organized and carefully edited. … I recommend that several copies be purchased by each university that has education and/or instructional design programs, and put on library reserve for courses at all levels that address ICT. The book is a valuable resource to include in course bibliographies.” (G. Abramson, Computing Reviews, February, 2015)
