How Technology Can Transform Education

Beschreibung

Nearly a century ago, John Dewey said that ""if we teach today's students as we taught yesterday's, we rob them of tomorrow."" That maxim underlies this insightful look at the present and future of education in the digital age. As Darrell West makes clear, today's educational institutions must reinvent themselves to engage students successfully and provide them with the skills needed to compete in an increasingly global, technological, and online world.
