This volume identifies promising learning, teaching, and assessment strategies for the use and assessment of technology in educational settings, specifically:
*educational context (e.g., organizational and structural factors that contribute to the effective use of technology in school settings);
*promising learning and teaching strategies;
*promising technology-based assessment procedures and methods;
*policy implementation issues; and
*a summary of current research on the effective use of technology in education.
Chapter authors represent a variety of perspectives...

Web-Based Learning: Theory, Research, and Practice explores the state of the art in the research and use of technology in education and training from a learning perspective. This edited book is divided into three major sections:
*Policy, Practice, and Implementation Issues -- an overview of policy issues, as well as tools and designs to facilitate implementation of Web-based learning;
*Theory and Research Issues -- a look at theoretical foundations of current and future Web-based learning; the section also includes empirical studies of Web-based learning; and
*Summary and...

Presenting original studies and rich conceptual analyses, this volume explores how cognitive and affective metrics can be used to effectively assess, modify, and enhance learning and assessment outcomes of simulations and games used in education and training.

Presenting original studies and rich conceptual analyses, this volume reports on theoretical issues involved in the use of simulations and games in educational assessment. It is an indispensable resource for researchers and scholars of educational assessment and evaluation, educational technology, and educational and military psychology.
