Reviews

This book is aimed at teachers interested in increasing their use of technology in the classroom. The examples given are excellent. They are very explicit and easy to follow. I have not encountered a book that does this in this manner. I really enjoyed [the author's] writing style. It seemed like a workshop that you were actually attending. --Dr. David S. Ellena, Principal of Tomahawk Creek Middle School, VA I love all of the different apps shared and appreciate that he provided a classroom example of how to use [each one] that is connected to the Common Core! Very user-friendly! --Jessica Bennett, Language Arts Teacher and Past-President of the Ohio Council of Teachers of English Language Arts
