Catlin Tucker takes on the questions that serve as teachers′ biggest barriers in exploring what technology can bring to their professional experiences. Questions of assessment, time, and access, as well as practical suggestions for how to begin working with modern collaborative resources, serve to guide teachers through the philosophical and pedagogical challenges of exploring the promise of blended learning.--Rushton Hurley, Executive Director
"In Blended Learning in Grades 4-12, Tucker takes on the questions that serve as teachers′ biggest barriers to exploring what technology can bring to their professional experiences. Too often, exploration of educational technology is more about the tools than the learning, and consequently it is a pleasure to read this book in which inspiring and empowering students serves as the primary frame for discussion. The skilled examination of the larger question of how to teach well using whatever one has will make Tucker′s book a valuable resource for teachers for a long time to come."--Rushton Hurley, Executive Director (4/9/2012 12:00:00 AM)
"This book shows teachers how to use technology and blended learning practices to blend online discussion with face-to-face classroom instruction."--Midwest Book Review, September 2012
