Welcome! The purpose of this Web site is to bring together a comprehensive list of resources linked to the content of the program of study in the Instructional Technology & Distance Education (ITDE) doctoral program at Nova Southeastern University.
These
resources reflect both my personal and professional interests. While
the items related to instructional
design, distance education,
leadership, instructional
media, and research & evaluation
clearly link to study areas in the ITDE program, other resources connect
to my personal and professional interests.

The
page devoted to learning theory resources
originated with a course that I taught in this area -- I have found
that these are resources that transcend specific coursework. As the
Director of Emerging Technologies for the Fischler
Graduate School of Education and Human Services, I am often called
upon to speak about emerging instructional technologies -- my role as
the "gadget girl" has led me to craft this listing of resources
that continually changes as we endeavor to "keep up" with
current and emerging technologies.
Finally, the links in regard to educational
computing, Web publishing, search
engines and online libraries
reflect my personal interests in fostering the use of technology for
instruction, communication and recreation. Finally, I also provide a
list of sites related to evaluating
resources: this reflects the importance of examining the creditibility,
authority, currency and accuracy (among other measures) of online resources.
I
hope you find these resources useful and I welcome your assistance by
letting me know of links that need updating and/or by providing additional
resources that can supplement what is here. Thank you -- and as I so
often say: onward!
