Blending Instruction with Technology is a book that offers educators guidelines and solutions for implementing blended learning in today’s classrooms. There has been a strong push by many communities, schools and educators to move to a 1:1 environment. However, once there… • How does one teach or facilitate learning in such an environment? • What are the researched best practices for implementing blended learning in classrooms? • How do schools provide professional development to teachers to implement best practices in their classroom? • Regarding the twenty year veteran who just recently mastered email, how do schools provide the proper guidance, training and support for him/her? This books aims to answer these questions and many more. This book is designed to be a blueprint for preparing staff members to be successful in a 1:1 environment. This book also focuses on providing students with a blended learning lesson that incorporates both cognitive and 21st Century Skills.
I believe that Dr. Martin hits on key components of why it is necessary to better utilize technology within the schools. He makes it a point that we as educators and a learning community need to stay current with the advancement of technology in order to benefit our children and young adults’ education in today's world. -- Dr. Kenneth D. Brubaker Jr., assistant professor, Ashland University
There are many books about technology and teaching, but it is rare to find one that is so firmly grounded in both best practice and theory. Dr. Martin uses his experience from years of teaching and of working in public education to bring the reader ideas that are useful and challenging. I recommend Blending Instruction with Technology as a text as well as for personal professional reading. This view from the field is solidly based on what we know of technology, teaching, and learning and makes the volume a thorough and useful resource. -- Ann Converse Shelly, executive secretary of the World Federation of Associations for Teacher Education; professor emerita, Ashland University
