A voice in the technological wilderness.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Heather- Jane Robertson is an eloquent voice in the a technological wilderness when she atttacks the current sacred cow in education- IT. There is no doubt that the 1960s model of education needs to change but Robertson questions the wisdom of attaching the change to the IT wagon. School administrators who are attempted to think that computers will be education's deux ex machina will find the book thought provoking because we constantly battle the balance of a student's personal development against the imperative of information.The book has a distinctly Canadian flavour but an international message.It is well worth a read and would be a great book for educational reading groups.Neil MacNeill
