Summary: This comprehensive text reviews all areas related to technology, especially computer-based technology in K-12 schools. The objective is to help pre-service and in-service teachers reflect upon and discover the range of issues that need to be addressed in order to achieve successful integration of computer-based technology for teaching and learning into the K-12 curriculum. Particular emphasis is on practical applications and hands-on learning. The second edition has stronger coverage of the Internet and distance learning. Three of the four new case studies focus on the Internet, the World Wide Web, and multimedia, and new "Surf the Web" suggestions end every chapter. The revision has been extensively restructured in order to begin immediately with discussion of K-12 computer-based teaching and learning with societal computing issues now covered much later in the text. Chapter 1, What the Research Has to Say about Technology Use in Teaching and Learning, is new to the 2/e. A new Appendix covers the History of Computers in Schools. --- Amazon.com
