What People are Saying About This
“What I most admire about this book is the authors’ insistence on goal-driven coherence for technology-integrated instruction in the classroom, within a team, and across a district. Readers will emerge from their experience with the text asking themselves, ‘What are we trying to do for learners, and why?’”—Kelly Chandler-Olcott, interim dean and Laura J. & L. Douglas Meredith Professor for Teaching Excellence, Syracuse University
“Whether it involves selecting digital texts and tools, promoting student access and engagement, teaching content grounded in evidence-informed practices, or envisioning district-level support, this book is a smart one-stop resource for technology-integrated solutions. Karchmer-Klein and her colleagues provide useful templates and planning guides alongside social media action items for teachers and districts to play an active role in building supportive educational communities together.”—Julie Coiro, professor, The University of Rhode Island
“Guided by their synergistic planning framework, the authors of Next-Level Digital Tools and Teaching provide specific evidence-informed strategies to support effective technology integration in the classroom. This is an outstanding and timely resource for educators at all levels.”—Blaine E. Smith, associate professor, University of Arizona
