| Synopsis: |
Here's a tantalizing glimpse into the classrooms of innovative educators who are using technology to connect with students, colleagues, the local community, and the world beyond. "Edutopia" offers a unique perspective on education in which technology is employed to make schools more exciting and dynamic for everyone involved - students work on real-world projects and consult with the best outside experts; teachers learn by tapping into the best people and practices in their field; and, classrooms regularly connect with the rich resources of their communities and the world beyond. A lively resource that teachers and parents will want to refer to again and again, "Edutopia" is filled with more than forty full-color photos, has a useful resource section, and comes with a unique CD-ROM that contains more than seventy minutes of video footage of these classrooms in action. "This book provides educators and parents alike with an unprecedented opportunity to see the future.We must support the efforts of these national heroes - teachers and students from primary and secondary education, foundation and community leaders----as they use technology to make our students and our nation more competitive." - Bob Kerrey, president, New School University and former United States Senator and chair of the Congressional Web-Based Education Commission. "This book provides a glimpse of the future by showing us the best work of innovators today. Anyone involved in creating the schools of the future shoud read it." - Linda Darling-Hammond, professor, School of Education, Stanford University ""Edutopia" is an exciting guide to help teaching and learning move into the twenty-first century." - Richard Riley, former Secretary of Education. |
