| Summary |
The powerful changes brought by information and communication technology to schools and institutions in recent years have led many educators to revise the way they teach and structure their learning environments. The growth of technology applications in teaching and training is not only gaining momentum, it is becoming a significant component in today's educational scene. This book presents research and case studies to explain, for the first time, how these technologically-rich learning environments can be optimized and achievements can be sustained. The authors draw on their extensive research in the area to explore the paedagogical and organizational implications of technology-rich learning environments and more importantly, they provide practical models for educators to realize the full potential of technology in the future. This comprehensive book provides a coherent framework for understanding technology-rich learning environments |
