Instructional Technology and Media for Learning

Rate this book
This title is only available as a
loose-leaf version with Pearson eText, or an electronic
book.
Instructional Technology and Media for
Learning shows specifically and realistically how technology
and media enhance and support everyday teaching and learning.
Written from the viewpoint of the teacher, it shows how to
integrate a complete range of technology and media formats into
classroom instruction using the ASSURE model for lesson planning.
Ideal for educators at all levels, it helps readers to incorporate
technology and media into best practice, to use them as teaching
tools, and to guide students in using them as learning tools.
Examples come from elementary and secondary education. The new
Eleventh Edition keeps readers up to pace with the innovations in
all aspects of technology, particularly those related to computers,
Web 2.0, social networks, and the Internet. The updating throughout
reflects the acceleration trend toward digitizing information and
school use of telecommunications resources, such as the Web. It
also addresses the interaction among the roles of teachers,
technology, coordinators, and school media specialists, all
complementary and interdependent teams within the school.

This book was so bad; it reads like an advertisement for Partnership for 21st Century Skills. It's basically shilling a lesson plan model called ASSURE, and detailing each aspect. There are some helpful weblinks (although several others don't work). Otherwise, it's a lesson plan instruction manual. And the e-book is a limited access program, which sucks because it was expensive. It's hard to navigate, you can't read it easily, and it will disappear by the beginning of next year. And the chapters that might be construed as helpful (using visuals, audio, and video in instruction) are so lengthy they are a pain to read, and have so much technical information that any putz with a computer already knows how to do (I can put images in a Powerpoint? Do tell! And a CD is a storage format for audio? I'm in awe). No lesson suggestions or actual helpful information--just the facts, but so many of them and to a nauseating degree.

The MyEd Kit that accompanies is crap. A bunch of useless quizzes that don't reflect on the chapter content, some flashcards, and the weblinks that are already denoted in the chapter. A waste of money, both this and the e-book.

This book assumes you are a moron who has no concept of what teaching is or how a classroom works. It is a total waste of money.

Kinda of excited about this book, it is required for my first grad class and from what I have leafed thru it so far, I may be able to apply some of the lessons into practice right away.

I am surprised at how much I am enjoying this book,it is geared towards teaching younger learners, but the information is still very relevant.

I have also been able to use it as a resource for the other class I am taking, so that is an added bonus. I will probably keep this one for my collection.

Well-designed and easy to read with practical applications for each chapter. (Unfortunately, only available as loose-leaf and e-book when I read it. I chose loose-leaf.) In spite of the format issue, I would definitely recommend this book. 4*
