Reviews

'One of the most important contributions on the whole TEL field'. - Richard Noss, Director of ESRC/EPSRC TEL Research Program 'As new technologies, tools and online resources continue to proliferate, teachers, children and parents are increasingly confronted with 'learning support' overload. From smartphones to multitouch, apps to augmented reality, and interactive books to YouTube - how do they decide which to use and also how best to integrate with existing learning practices? Luckin's seminal and timely text covers the wider 'context of learning' spanning across time, space, home and school, while also crossing local and global and virtual and physical. A must read for those who want to learn more about how best to systematically choose, combine and constrain in an increasingly unwieldy world of instant knowledge and pervasive technology.' - Prof. Yvonne Rogers, Professor of Human-Computer Interaction, Oxford University
