Never before has technology in education been more of a hyped up buzzword or ridiculed punchline. High profile examples of struggles with good implementation make national news. Great implementations show students engaged and achieving better than ever thought possible. There is no doubt good education technology can make a major difference. Bad education technology ruins careers, wastes tax dollars and does nothing for students. In 'The Tao of Education Technology' Darryl expertly brings together two seemingly divergent concepts: ancient philosophical wisdom and modern technology in the classroom. As I read the book I continued to exclaim 'aha' at the numerous concepts. The idea that this ancient philosophical wisdom actually and truly can influence what actually happens is both obvious and revolutionary. I recommend this book as a means to really step back and see the forest from a distance. It is this distance and perspective which can be the true catalyst for change and growth. If there was ever a topic that deserved deep reflection it is education technology. This is the perfect book to do that. -- William C. Olien, Murrieta Valley Unified School District, Assistant Superintendent, Facilities and Operational Services
