Case-Based E-Learning Design for Real-World Problem Solving guides educators and instructional designers through the integration and design of effective case-based e-learning environments. Format: Hardback Length: 224 pages Publication date: 01 January 2021 Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd Traditional cased-based approaches to teaching and learning continue to be popular and affordable, particularly in educational and professional settings. However, with the increasing use of multimedia, games, and simulations in these contexts, case-based pedagogies have emerged as a promising approach to designing and implementing coherent e-learning programs that leverage available and emerging technologies.Case-Based E-Learning Design for Real-World Problem Solving is a comprehensive guide that empowers educators and instructional designers to integrate and design effective case-based e-learning environments. Drawing from a series of rich case-based e-learning projects conducted across various disciplines, this book offers a solid foundation in fundamental principles of learning that can be applied to e-learning design. It also provides practical strategies that are tailored to real-world problems, making it an invaluable resource for instructional designers and educators alike.The book is organized into five chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of case-based e-learning design. In the first chapter, the authors introduce the concept of case-based learning and discuss its benefits in educational and professional settings. They then explore the theoretical underpinnings of case-based learning, including cognitive theory, problem-solving, and instructional design.The second chapter provides an in-depth exploration of applied learning and design principles, which are essential for creating effective case-based e-learning environments. The authors discuss the importance of engaging learners, promoting active learning, and designing interfaces that are user-friendly and intuitive. They also provide examples of interface design practices and discuss formative evaluation techniques that can be used to assess the effectiveness of case-based e-learning programs.In the third chapter, the authors delve into e-learning models and interfaces, discussing the different types of models and interfaces that can be used in case-based e-learning. They explore the benefits and limitations of each model and interface and provide examples of how they have been implemented in real-world projects. The chapter also highlights the challenges associated with implementing e-learning models and interfaces and offers strategies for overcoming these challenges.The fourth chapter focuses on the implementation of case-based e-learning programs, discussing the strategies and techniques that can be used to ensure successful implementation. The authors discuss the importance of project management, collaboration, and ongoing evaluation and feedback to ensure that case-based e-learning programs are effective and sustainable. They also provide examples of successful case-based e-learning programs from various fields, including education, medicine, science, engineering, and the military.The fifth chapter concludes the book by summarizing the key lessons learned from the case-based e-learning projects discussed throughout the book. The authors highlight the importance of a solution-driven approach to instructional design and problem-solving, the importance of engaging learners, and the significance of integrating technology and multimedia elements into e-learning programs. They also provide recommendations for future research and practice in case-based e-learning design.In conclusion, Case-Based E-Learning Design for Real-World Problem Solving is a valuable resource for educators and instructional designers who are interested in creating effective and engaging case-based e-learning programs. The book provides a comprehensive and practical guide to integrating and designing case-based e-learning environments, with a focus on real-world problem-solving. By leveraging the power of case-based learning, educators and instructional designers can enhance the learning experience of their students and professionals, and promote the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
