Is the emerging digital multimedia culture of today transforming
the textbook or forever displacing it? As new media of transmission
enter the classroom, the traditional textbook is now caught up in a
dialogue reshaping the textual boundaries of the book, and with it
the traditional modes of cognition and learning, which are bound
more to language than to visual form. Most of the important work in
the past two decades in the field of curriculum has focused on the
culture of the textbook. A rich literature has evolved around
textbooks as the traditional object of instructional activity. This
volume is an important contribution to this literature, which
focuses on the actual making of a textbook. This design process
serves as a metaphor that suggests new paradigms of learning and
instruction, in which text content is but one component in a
multidimensional information space."The Visual Turn" is an
exploration along the border of this new learning space
transforming the traditional center of instruction in the
classroom.
