<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>Learning First, Technology Second</i> offers teachers a classroom-tested, easy-to-use framework to help them move from arbitrary uses of technology to thoughtful ways of adding value to student learning.</b> <p/>Learning with technology doesn't happen because a specific tool "revolutionizes" education. It happens when proven teaching strategies intersect with technology tools, and yet it's not uncommon for teachers to use a tool because it's "fun" or because the developer promises it will help students learn. <p/>This book includes: <ul><li>An introduction to the Triple E Framework that helps teachers engage students in time-on-task learning, enhance learning experiences beyond traditional means and extend learning opportunities to bridge classroom learning with students' everyday lives.</li><li>Effective strategies for using technology to create authentic learning experiences for their students.</li><li>Case studies to guide appropriate tech integration.</li><li>A lesson planning template to show teachers how to effectively frame technology choices and apply them in instruction.</li></ul><br>The companion jump start guide based on this book is <i>Engage, Enhance, Extend: Start Creating Authentic Lessons With the Triple E Framework</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"...the Triple E Framework is the first concrete 'tool' to help a specific teacher think through the role of specific technology in their specific classroom." -- Cathie Norris, Elliot Soloway<br><br>"[Kolb] was putting into words so many things I witnessed and felt as I worked in dozens of classrooms over the past five years.
