ISTE’s editors
described Virtual Architecture in their most recent catalog
in the following way: “Is it worth it, all this Internet
stuff? Worth the time and energy it takes? Worth it because your
students will learn more? Worth it because you’ll be a better
teacher? The answer to these questions--yes and no--can be found
in this readable, conversational, practical, and slyly revolutionary
work. The author proposes that integrating computer-mediated technology
into your classroom is well worth it if accomplished in a way
that helps new and worthwhile things happen there. And then she
shows you how to do just that. You’ll begin building with
a flexible framework--clear, strong, and simple activity structures--that
becomes your foundation for designing and implementing powerful
curriculum-based telecomputing projects. Don’t expect a
project directory, general reference, or manual. This is a book
you’ll read from start to finish and be glad you did. It’s
worth it.” |
