This book is the third volume in the series on Research in
Educational Diversity and Excellence. The goal of this series is to
bring issues of diversity and educational risk to the forefront of
national attention in order to assist the nation's diverse students
at risk of failure to achieve academic excellence. This series
focuses on critical issues in the education of linguistic and
cultural minority students and those placed at risk by factors of
race, poverty, and geographic location. The purpose of the present
book is to summarize and discuss recent perspectives, research, and
practices related to the use of educational technology in
multicultural settings. Technology that is already ubiquitous in
our daily lives brings a myriad of issues to the area of education.
Although educational systems should be geared to address challenges
appropriately, the systems should be designed and developed to
provide opportunities to take advantage of technology use. This
book is noteworthy in that it presents avariety of theoretical and
practical considerations for technology use in diverse
multicultural contexts. Consisting of 12 chapters, the book (a)
proposes theoretical concerns for understanding technological
learning environments today and envisions the potential impact of
future technology use and (b) examines technology tools and models
that have been used for interventions, programs, and projects and
measures and documents specific outcomes and challenges involving
complex interactions within low-income and languageminority
families and students.
