Working Groups

Summary: Working Groups

Working groups are now formed for editing the eBook chapters. The project management core group (PMCG) will meet with a representative from each working group in an effort to determine a plan of action to accomplish the tasks needed to produce the eBook. Tuesday evenings are reserved for group status reports to the class, after which you may meet with members of your working group.

Pam,

I'd be interested in the materials that you mentioned regarding working in groups.

Regarding the "chaos theory" of instruction that you mentioned, I believe that it's often difficult to know what to ask about a subject until you've had some experience with it. To use a (possibly weak) analogy, it's hard to know much about possible branches that a path has available to explore until you've actually traveled a little way along the path.

LOVE THE TITLE for the ebook... states our situation and everyone else who is planning to learn online perfectly!

Thanks, Vince and Brian :-) I'll get some information ready ASAP.

Here is a site that might be a possible avenue for delivering our ebook to the online community. The viewer is free and the author version has a 30 day trial... Just something to look over.

Q: Does TK3 Author create eBooks?

Yes, it does. However, whereas most eBooks are just text and pictures in static, digital form, TK3 allows you as an author to create an interactive and dynamic experience for your readers. Your TK3 eBook can assemble not only text and pictures, but also audio and video. TK3 creates the next dimension of eBooks.
