Reviews

As an expert in the cognitive science of learning and an award-winning educator, Miller is well-poised to bridge the gap between science and practice. Minds Online translates principles and findings from cognitive science into concrete, actionable tips and recommendations for educators trying to incorporate technology into their teaching. This is a terrific book.--Sean Kang, Dartmouth College

If you teach with technology in any form, at any level, I recommend you put this book at the top of your tottering pile of required reading on higher education. It s an outstanding book that provides a road map for truly effective online teaching. What distinguishes [<b>Miller</b> s] book from much of the research available on teaching with technology, and pushes it beyond arguments about improving access, is her emphasis on the ways in which online teaching tools can actually improve learning for <i>all</i> students--not just those who have no access to traditional face-to-face classrooms.--James Lang Chronicle of Higher Education (12/08/2014)
