It is an immense challenge to author a book that maintains a healthy balance between theory, assessment of the evidence and research informed practice. This becomes even more challenging in the field of technology supported learning. In A Framework for Teaching Music Online, Carol Johnson not only has achieved this, but she has managed to produce a book that is exciting, engaging and critical. Many congratulations to Dr Johnson for this most excellent contribution to our field. * Evangelos Himonides, Professor of Technology, Education and Music, University College London, UK * The author wrote: "However, online music teaching is not a mere 'lift and shift' of Face-to-Face teaching design. Dr. Carol Johnson has opened up the pedagogy and solutions of distance learning in music based on the history of distance learning and its theory. In a great way, she highlights the goals, opportunities, and ways of working in distance learning music. The knowledge provided by the book helps the reader to develop his or her own teaching work and to remove unnecessary preconceptions about the promotion of music education today. * Matti Ruippo, Senior Lecturer in Pedagogic Innovations and Culture, Tampere University of Applied Sciences, Finland *
