Reviews
[E]xplores how today's information technology is changing how we educate and are educated. The book includes accounts from K-12 teachers who are incorporating technology into their classroom environments. The use of close-circuit cameras, electronic cheating, and distance learning are discussed at length. * School Library Connection, November/December 2007 * This book is a serious analysis of critical issues, far more than a mere summary of survery data. . . . The broad coverage of critical issues, the insightful discussion, the clarity of expression, and the colorful excerpts all make this book engaging and thought provoking. * Educational Technology, March/April 2010 * this text challenges educators to assess the value of contemporary digital technologies as modes of instruction....Recommended. * CHOICE, May 2010 * The two authors (both in political science) discuss the impact of information technology on modern K-12 schools and their students, focusing mainly on the US. Subjects include issues of privacy in a wired classroom, how students and teachers integrate digital technology into the teaching and learning experience, the sources of inequality in access to technology education, electronic cheating, and distance learning. * Reference and Research Book News, November 2007 *
