I have been a technical trainer for more than 15 years. I wasn't expect this book to be really clear and practical I was surprised. I feel a lot more confident about creating a MOOC (massive open online course ) for my industry. This is remarkable because the technical parts have never been a struggle for me. But Matthew Gilbert has found a way to strike the balance between keeping instructors focused on the subject and yet navigating the technical aspects to master the medium. I found the chapters on integrating the curriculum to especially useful and his thoughts on promotingthe course especially valuable. The only reason I haven't rated in a 5 is because I think people starting out might need a more illustrations of doing what the course would look like in this format. A narrative that could guide a novice through the process. This might be an unfair evaluation because Packt publish to a highly technical audience. But this book is work the invest and taking the time to read the advice.You can tell the material has the emphasis that only comes from experience.

I purchased this book looking for information on designing online courses, as I do not use the edX software. Fortunately the book goes beyond the software and provides both general direction and specific tips for designing and building an online course.The author emphasizes organizing the material to make it understandable by students and to make production easier. A method for structuring even large courses is described, and applied to the edX environment. Extended information is provided for recording, producing and uploading video files, as they are the main component of many online courses. Many of the specific steps for edX described in the text, such as "how to enter a long course description," are equally valid for setting up any online course, and should be taken into account. There is also a comprehensive section on marketing an online course including social media, personal branding and metrics to measure success; all useful to an instructor planning a course.For those looking for edX information, the book does provide a comprehensive set of instructions and screenshots for setting up a course. Overall this is a very useful book for those planning to deliver courses online.

I would like to give a brief introduction about edX, just for those who don't know what this book or edX is about.edX is an open source LMS, Learning Management System, supported by some of the most prestigious Universities of the world such as the MIT and Harvard Universtiy.So basically we are talking about edX as a tool, very interesting and valuable one, for example in case you are thinking about creating an online course.edX as such is a MOOC, Massive Open Online Course, platform where you can find a bunch of courses created by the most prestigious Univerties from all over the world.This book, "EdX E-Learning Course Development", is a valuable source of information in case you want to achive your goal, creating your own online course.Just in eight chapters the author will guide you through all the necessary steps and tools you need to achive that: having a look at the platform, taking the first steps, planning the course by producing videos, having the audience in mind, how to designing exercises, administrating and promoting your course.As I mentioned before, if you are an educator or just a person who wants to produce an online course in mind ,this book is a perfect initial point to achive your goal.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
