I-3: Evaluating an e-Pack in 10 Minutes or Less: Using the WebCT Key Features


Detailed Description:	It's easy to flip through a textbook, but how do you quickly browse an e-Pack? The WebCT Key Features provide an easy way to quickly assess what an e-Pack (a publisher-created, WebCT-ready course) has to offer. The WebCT Key Features highlight the characteristics that distinguish best-of-show from just adequate digital content. During the presentation, we will use the Key Features rubric to evaluate two or more e-Packs in 10 minutes or less.
