Telling Tales on Technology: Qualitative Studies of Technology and EducationInformation and communications technology (ICT) has become an unavoidable element of education, yet new technologies have failed to become wholly integrated. This engaging volume critically examines the role of ICT in education and explores how, given its assumed importance, new technology remains a peripheral part of much of what goes on in education. An essential text for anyone thinking seriously about the use of ICT in education. |
