Produktbeschreibung
Socially distanced learning and online lessons are playing an increasingly important role in the teaching of English as a Foreign or Second Language. Face-to-face teaching is being supplemented or even replaced by video platforms and e-learning solutions and by the targeted exploitation of virtual reality environments. This book explores the role played by the e-moderator in creating and teaching an online course in a virtual world. Combining research and practice, this study details relevant theories of online learning and shows how they are represented through various models, creating a framework to assist the e-moderation process. The result is highly insightful work which uncovers the e-moderator's beliefs and perceptions, revealing not only the complexities, problems, responsibilities and challenges encountered, but also the tremendous rewards that can be gained from e-moderation.

Autorenporträt
Andrew R. Webster holds a degree in Psychology and Philosophy from the University of Dundee and an MSc in TESOL from Edinburgh University. Having worked in sectors as diverse as banking and social services before embarking on a career in teaching, he has always been passionate about travelling to new, far flung and exciting places and immersing himself in their cultures whilst learning about their history. In keeping with this, he has taught English to a variety of different learners in countries such as Japan and South Korea, where he was based at the time of writing, providing him with a wonderful opportunity to develop the skills and knowledge required to teach different levels of English to those with varying learning abilities. His ongoing thirst for knowledge provides him with the motivation to continually explore and discover new possibilities and new philosophical approaches. He is especially keen to investigate new teaching methods and enjoys the continuing challenges associated with the teaching of English as a second language. In particular, this involves exploring the pedagogical potential of online learning and the exploitation of virtual worlds in English language teaching.
