Editor's Foreword
The Learning Room site that hosts Communication Project Magazine continues to be an evolutionary event. With this second volume of Communication Project Magazine, we look at e-learning. Michele Minton asks the question Is Your Organization Ready for E-Learning?, outlining the 7 key questions that will help you determine the level of change needed in order to implement e-learning in your organization. The second article, Foundations of E-Learning, by Marvin Gottlieb, examines the theoretical basis for designing content for the Web and how a constructivist model can be used to shape e-learning events.
Communication Project Magazine is currently being offered semi-annually. However, since it is still under construction, you might want to check more frequently to see if articles have been added to an issue (a purely electronic prerogative). Since all magazines seem to require an editorial policy, here goes.
We would expect the scope of the publication to become more focused with time. However, at this point, any articles that relate to learning are likely prospects. They can range from learning theory to practical applications for training and the school classroom. Future issues will include reviews of relevant books, articles, and Web sites, as well as an occasional irreverent critique of current teaching and training issues and practices. Please see our Call for Articles for instructions on submitting your ideas to our pages.
We welcome your comments and observations which can be sent through our contact page. In the meantime, thank you for visiting us.
