Managing the New Tools in K-12 Teaching and Learning: How
Technology Can Enable School Improvement is about how to manage
technology for learning at the district and school levels. It
provides an overview of the components of learning technology;
these include student devices, networking, software productivity
toolkits, electronic curricula and resources, and data system
infrastructure. And, it discusses how we can manage our technology
efforts more effectively to help our students attain the benefits
of this technology. The book concludes with case studies of how
this is being done at pioneering districts. We are now at a tipping
point in implementing learning technology on a larger scale. This
is happening very quickly! Historically, learning technology was
driven by a strategy of "technology integration," where we called
on individual teachers to each determine how to use technology in
their classes and make changes in their own ways of working. But to
successfully implement technology on the scale we need requires
top-down as well as bottom-up efforts. Managing the New Tools in
K-12 Teaching and Learning focuses on how districts and schools can
now use technology to bring about the big improvements in learning
we are all striving for.
