Synopsis Educational technology comprises a variety of electronic tools, media, and environments that can be used to enhance learning, foster creativity, stimulate communication, encourage collaboration, and engage in the continuous development and application of knowledge and skills. It has now evolved to a point where its power to transform schools is evident. This book, focused on the potential of technology to affect student learning outcomes, is expected to advance the dynamic field of educational technology by helping practitioners make better informed curriculum and budget decisions; researchers design studies, assessments, and evaluations that are immediately relevant and meaningful to practitioners; and policymakers shape and support initiatives that are well thought out and that include evaluation as an essential element.
