As the trend toward online and distance learning courses in higher education continues, educators and instructional designers continually struggle with efforts to engage and motivate learners located in electronically distributed, asynchronous environments. Studies in the professional literature point to active and problem based learning strategies as possible ways to successfully involve students while raising achievement levels, yet importing such methodologies to the online environment is challenging. Emerging technologies offer hope for the integration of active/problem-based learning with the online instructional environment. One of the most promising of these technologies includes interactive simulation software applications.

The Use Of Portal Technology In Library User Education, James A. Van Fleet, B Stockland
James A. Van Fleet
Introduction: During the summer of 2004 Information Services and Resources (ISR) at Bucknell University installed both the Sirsi Rooms software and SCT Luminis Portal software. These web-based portals have allowed us to make profound changes to our web presence and web-based services. In addition, they have changed the way we provide library user education to undergraduate students, from freshman seminars to engineering senior design courses.

Then explain what we are doing now and how we are moving forward, with some possible directions for the future. …
