"Technology can allow students to learn through direct instruction, video streaming, podcasting, project-based learning, adaptive algorithm-based software, and more. Giving students opportunities to work with each other and take on a new role, such as that of a teacher, enables you to also provide more one-on-one feedback. Teachers can become more of a facilitator and move around the classroom and learn more about the students and their needs, and also build relationships in the process. Relationships are key to student growth, and choice can be a significant boost here. One of the advantages of digital tools is that they can make some things more accessible; anytime, anywhere access to information, past work, groups, experts, and more is not the only benefit of technology. The resources and materials have more of an opportunity to stay up-to-date, and there are many so choices that each student can find something that is relevant to them. The present book introduces current and future teachers to the approaches, methods, and procedures for integrating computers and other media into the curriculum using a systematic instructional design approach. This concise book provides the basics for becoming a knowledgeable educator in the 21st century. The book is unique in the way it covers applications of technology and other media within a basic planning, implementation, and evaluation (PIE) framework"-- Back cover.
