Using a wide range of educational settings – primary, secondary, school and home – it will help practitioners think about, plan and execute effective learning in their classrooms and beyond. It will show teachers how they can 'harness technology for the future' by covering important topics such as: personalised learning using ICT for pupils with special needs personal use of ICT and home-school links designing 'digital' classrooms.
