Customer Reviews
Read this before you write anything
When I started to read the book I had two concerns. First it is a bit dated and so the internet is not discussed as a potential media. Second it is more practical and not based on pedagogic foundations so it might not have advice that can be generalised.
I was wrong to worry on both accounts as he presents a very pragmatic view. It is a very easy book to read and it gives you excellent tips for managing the development process. I have started using the check lists in my own development and I have encountered some of the problems he warns about. While it does not cover the internet it does not matter as he only briefly discusses the authoring stages of development.
For laying the ground-work for course development this is an essential guide.
