5-0 out of 5 stars Gavin Dudeney's Internet book
Excellent book. The first pages (Guidelines) serve as the basis to understand what Internet is all about and how it can be used in ELT . It's got tips, hands-on sections and Website FAQs. They're a must for newbies like me. For us,EFL/ESl teachers, this book is an excellent resource to start our journey towards the integration of ICT into the language classroom. Wonderful activities, smartly organized by levels and themes.

5-0 out of 5 stars Valuable resource book
I bought this book despite the comments made by the reader from SÃO PAULO, and therefore had some hesitations in using it in my classrooms. However, I found the book to be incredibly informative and chock full of useful and practical ideas that can be easy implemented into the classroom. It is written in such a clear way that there's no need to have any in depth internet knoweledge at all. A god send for the likes of me. I would recommend this book withput hesitation to any teacher wanting to utilise the capabilities of using the internet in the classroom. I'm not sure what problems are friend in Brazil encountered, but I had no trouble at all. All of the pages listed in the book led to straight to the sites they were supposed to. I have already started an email exchange with another school. I'm not sure what problems are friend in Brazil encountered, but I had no trouble at all.

5-0 out of 5 stars Worth having
This is a really useful book.Although a fan of the internet and an EFL teacher I could never quite work out the best ways to use the net to help my students.This book is full of practical and workable ideas.It opens up a whole new resource for teachers.You don't have to be a computer whizz either! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Terrific resource for middle grade teachers!
I'm a 7th-grade social studies teacher, and I lived off this book when we were studying the ancient world.Middle-grade teachers (7th & 8th grades) are always looking for more interactive activities to use with their students.Evans's book is easy-to-digest, clear, and accesible enough to be easily applied to most classrooms.Activities are relevant, fun, and hip enough to keep most early teens interested.The tone doesn't talk down to either students or teachers.An indispensible resource for any interactive classroom!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great classroom resource
Ms. Evans' book is a wonderful way for upper elementary and middle school students to hone internet research skills while studying and learning ancient history. The book not only engages students in interesting and worthwhile activities, but also provides useful and appropriate links to sites chock full of relevent information. The activities include well-written text that brushes the dust off ancient tombs and brings early peoples to life! This book does a great job integrating technology and social studies curriculum. I'd love to see more books like this developed for other content areas. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Book.Helped me outline my research paper
I found this book to be a useful introduction to creating a virtual classroom.I am a student studying instructional technology and it has helped me put together the outline for my research paper.The book is nottechnical, nor is it a guide for online curriculum.What it does isdiscusses at an introductory level the tools of creating an onlineclassroom.

I thought it was a great book as a brief overview of keyissues of importance for creating a virtual classroom.It helped guide myweb sourcing while I put together a public interest web site utilizing freeinternet service providers.I am now ready to move to the next phase ofdevelopment with my web site.I have a clear understanding of what comesnext.

I would recommend this book to students and people beginning theirquest to understand the tools of the virtual classroom.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Network Science, A Decade Later--the result of NSF-funded research that looked at the experiences of a set of science projects which use the Internet--offers an understanding of how the Internet can be used effectively by science teachers and students to support inquiry-based teaching and learning. The book emphasizes theoretical and critical perspectives and is intended to raise questions about the goals of education and the ways that technology helps reach those goals and ways that it cannot. The theoretical perspective of inquiry-based teaching and learning in which the book is grounded is consistent with the current discipline-based curriculum standards and frameworks.

The chapters in Part I, "State of the Art," describe the history and current practice of network science. Those in Part II, "Looking Deeply," extend the inquiry into network science by examining discourse and data in depth, using both empirical data and theoretical perspectives.

In Part III, "Looking Forward," the authors step back from the issues of network science to take a broader view, focusing on the question: How should the Internet be used--and not used--to support student learning? The book concludes with a reminder that technology will not replace teachers. Rather, the power of new technologies to give students both an overwhelming access to resources--experts, peers, teachers, texts, images, and data--and the opportunity to pursue questions of their own design, increases the need for highly skilled teachers and forward-looking administrators. This is a book for them, and for all educators, policymakers, students involved in science and technology education.

6. internet Communication in Six Classrooms: Conversations Across Time, Space, and Culture

Editorial Review

Product Description
This is a book about communication. The authors tell half a dozen stories about teachers and students who, because of recent advances in telecommunications, are able to move ideas back and forth across time, space, and culture. All of this is quite remarkable -- not the electronic "handshaking" and movement of bits of information, but the intensely social activity that this technology supports. Young children learn to provide enough detail to make unfamiliar ideas comprehensible to other children thousands of miles away, and adolescents are able to tailor their language so that it is informal and engaging and still useful in persuading peers of the greater legitimacy of one or two competing claims. Teachers swap accounts of classroom triumphs and failures -- and even discuss basic beliefs about teaching and learning -- with relative strangers. Each of the six stories told here makes it clear that teachers and students are attempting to connect, often across considerable geographic and cultural distances. They are informing, entertaining, and persuading, and as they use computers to accomplish all sorts of social purposes, they belie the stereotype of computer users as isolates relating to machines, but not to other people.

The connections made are both similar to and different from non-electronic connections. Many of the conversations -- full of wit, intimacy, grace, fear, bias, and joy -- could have occurred on the playground or at the mall. What is quite different, however, is that children in Joliet, Illinois seldom meet Yup'ik Eskimo children on the playground, and adolescents going to the mall near rural La Center, Washington rarely meet peers with a wide range of experiences and diverse views on such topics as gays in the military or evolution. Teachers, who spend most of their days in isolation from other adults, seldom find colleagues with whom they can talk openly about teaching. Children, adolescents, and adults have an opportunity to make contact on the Internet with persons who they simply would not encounter otherwise. It can be a formidable cognitive task to encounter someone else's experiences indirectly and attempt to understand them. Each of the teachers in this volume is providing extended opportunities for students to learn to do just that.

Each of the six teachers featured in this volume is a quite extraordinary educator working in a rather ordinary setting. Their conversations about conceptions and actions, and their reflections about their own practice sit at the core of this book. Each has agreed to continue conversations with the authors, with each other, and with readers. E-mail and web addresses are listed in the book.

Product Description
As the Internet shifts from novelty to common household utility, more and more students are coming to school with Internet experience.

How will students' and teachers' roles, and schools as institutions, change as these Internet-age kids enter classrooms that are fully equipped with networked computers?

This book offers a unique preview of the issues and challenges teachers will face as their classrooms become fully connected to the Internet.

Anne Hird spent six months observing a class at a school where the future has already arrived. She presents a vivid and insightful account--often reported through the students' own words--of how young teens use computers in and out of school; how they perceive the world shaped by the Internet; and how these factors shape their expectations for classroom learning.

Hird observes and reflects on the paradox that confronts teachers in this new environment. They are expected to guide students in learning with a cognitive tool that was not part of the teachers' experience as students, while students' familiarity with the Internet calls into question the authority of the teacher on which the traditional teacher-student relationship is based. She offers a strategy for professional development that recognizes and builds on this inevitable shift in the teacher-student relationship.

This is an absorbing, thought-provoking and practical book for all educators--individual teachers and administrators alike--concerned about the integration of computer technology into elementary and secondary school classrooms. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Recommended reading regarding the real-world realities
Based on six months observing a class in a school where the students had easy and routine access to computers and the Internet, Anne Hird presents an informative and insightful report (often using the student's own words) of the impact of the new electronic communication resources and techniques upon classroom curriculum, teacher strategies, and student cognition in Learning From Cyber-Savvy Students. Impressive, scholarly, informative, ground breaking, thoughtful, and challenging, Learning From Cyber-Savvy Students is very highly recommended reading regarding the real-world realities of integrating computer technology and the Internet into elementary and secondary school classrooms and curriculums. ...

3-0 out of 5 stars OK, but there is better
This book is OK,but spends too much time on the problem and NO time on the solution. I found "Life and Death on the Internet" by Keith A. Schroeder to be a more practical book and a better value.Mr. Schroeder even gives his e-mail address in the book to help people with unique situations.The Netscape Navigator provided with this book is outdated.Besides, you can get a free copy from the Netscape Website.

My recommendation, pass on this book and get "Life and Death on the Internet".

4-0 out of 5 stars A good book to have, if you have a computer and children.
It is important that your children know who they can talk to and where they can go and where they can't in the real world and this is equally true in cyberspace. This book gives parents a guide in educating their children on how to be safe while on line. ... Read more
