If I could recommend only one book on course transformation for the Blended Learning in Higher Education group to consider, I would choose this one. Barkley organizes the volume into three parts encompassing the full range of requirements for a faculty who wish to either augment or fully reformat the way that students interact in their courses. It is a blended book, focusing on student outcomes in general and includes numerous very specific techniques that can be translated to in person and online experiences.

It's sophistication lies in the fact that it does not make the simplistic assumption that listening to a lecture is ALWAYS passive nor that participating in a group is ALWAYS active. It recognizes that a student's prior knowledge and cognitive attention can be aligned with the faculty learning designer's academic expectations in a thoughtfully-constructed activity. It assumes that unmeasurable components are essential to the success of the teaching and the learning, such as: passion, enthusiasm, and personality.

In Part 1 conceptual frameworks are covered broadly enough to remind any experienced instructor of one or two favorite or forgotten frameworks. In Part 2, 50 strategies are succinctly inventoried. Again they are broadly arrayed and clearly labeled so that an experienced educator can quickly locate a few new ideas. Specific tips are included with each strategy. And finally, in Part 3, Barkley catalogs a diverse array of well-tested techniques for the classroom. These give enough detail for the learning designer to use them immediately or to develop their own script for the new activity.

Best of all, she includes brief descriptions of how the activities can be transferred to an online format.
