商品簡介
Breck has been a teacher and a web content developer and is a passionate advocate of online learning. This collection of ideas urges educators and planners to throw out some preconceptions--uncomfortable as that might be--and embrace the changes and the startling potential of the internet. The ideas are expressed in brief essays in which Breck incorporates her own experiences and addresses the quandaries educators face with regard to search enginers, technology vs. humans as teachers, the usefulness of books, the definition of knowledge, open content, network, and laptops in schools, among other topics. Included in the appendix are 205 websites mentioned in the book. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
