内容説明

Since "A Nation at Risk" was published in 1983, the growing cry has been for major restructuring of the schools. While many are convinced that change is important to our future, most don't know how to go about changing. Restructuring Schools with Technology will help educators better understand the need for change, what to change, and how to do it. Restructuring Schools with Technology presents arguments for restructuring traditional education that points toward a new approach -- an approach that advocates interactive learning through exploration, critical analysis, problem solving, and communication in multiple media. Grounded in research, this book's focus is on improving learning and teaching using technology.
