Book Description

West examines how new models of education made possible by enhanced information technology will make public education in the post-industrial age more effective and relevant. Imagine schools where students master vital skills in a collaborative manner; where teachers assess pupils in real-time, and social media and digital libraries connect learners to a wide range of authentic informational resources. Students learn at their pace, technology tracks their progress, and schools are evaluated on outcomes. Education moves toward 24/7 engagement and learning throughout the year.
