Testo aggiuntivo
As the education space becomes increasingly crowded and confused with advice on the best ways to teach in the digital age, Mary Beth’s work stands out in relief. Instead of acronyms and buzz phrases, this book delivers straightforward definitions and instruction based off the edtech gold standards from the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE). From fake news to students’ privacy, educators should consider this a terrific primer for dealing with digital literacy.
