His full career history can be found at https: //www.linkedin.com/in/johncavallone. ""I was saddened to have learned the majority of the contents while on the job and not in a preservice course. Technology is now both a tool and vessel of our profession but very few administrators are given the proper training and honest-to-goodness-talk about the state of their schools/district and what can be done. Your book should be used in administration preparation programs for at least one session on facilities and instruction."" - Jeremy Burnham, Ed. D."
