Recenzii
"This is the best synthesis of reading strategies that I’ve seen!"
"McCain and Jukes present their assertions in plain language and gear their volume toward all readers, regardless of their experience of comfort with technology, who work in the educational technology field."
"The authors help dispel teachers’ fear of technology, and they encourage those who already have the desire to teach to begin exploring new ways to make their special field compelling and vibrant to members of a younger generation. This is a book designed to inspire and encourage teachers who have put off facing the new demands and opportunities of the computer age."
"I would like to see this book become required reading for every teacher or administrator before they break for the summer. Its simplified descriptions make it easily understood by non-technical people. I will make sure that all of my classes read it!"
"McCain and Jukes build a case that the Information Age has not yet peaked and awaken us to the challenge of the dramatic technological changes we will surely see within our life time."
"Windows on the Future summarizes key developments and concepts making them readily understandable. Though I’ve been a member of the World Future Society and an avid reader of books for over 30 years, I am not aware of any other publication like this for practicing educators. This would be very valuable for professional development study groups."
