商品簡介
Philadelphia's high-tech School of the Future (SOF), the result of cooperation between the school district of Philadelphia and Microsoft, offers lessons in high-school redesign, sustainable leadership, public-private partnerships, community engagement, and the use of technology in school reform. This detailed study of the school's first 3 years (2006-2009) looks at how SOF was created and what technologies, practices, and tools were built into the design. It examines how these elements have changed (or have not changed) teaching and learning. Contributors include researchers, educators, and practitioners. A final chapter presents voices of SOF classroom teachers. Cullinan is US director of innovation and business development for the Microsoft Education Group.
