Using the Schoolwide Enrichment Model With Technology cover

Using the Schoolwide Enrichment Model With Technology is an extension of a talent development model implemented in more than 2,500 schools across the U.S. and widely used internationally. More than 40 years of research and development have documented the effectiveness of the SEM approach to promoting higher level thinking skills and creative productivity.

This solution-oriented book, unlike other books focused on using technology in the classroom, recognizes that digital technologies are changing and evolving at lightning speeds. Our effective skills for using technology transcend time by focusing on how to find and use digital resources and tools rather than listing the resources that already exist. Focusing on the skills that support critical thinking and problem solving, decision making, and communication, the authors seamlessly merge technology to launch students toward independent productivity. This accessible and highly practical guide is rich with examples that will change the way you think about education while providing hands-on “how-to” guidance for creating a culture of excellence and innovation in your school and classroom.

The use of technology outlined here incorporates skills and processes, analysis, presentation, and critical and creative thinking in a way I have not seen in “how to teach with technology” books . . . [T]he content is absolutely solid. I would recommend this book for every teacher . . .,Rebecca Bell,NSTA Recommends, 1/3/17
I appreciate the multi-faceted look at technology in the classroom—we must think about how we're using technology, not just if we're using it. This book pushes the use of websites, apps, and devices beyond mere “electronic worksheets” into enriching experiences and provides some great scaffolds to get you there.,Ian Byrd,Byrdseed.com, 1/1/17
Along with addressing the need for attention to digital technology, this book focuses on strategies that help develop critical thinking, problem solving, decision making, and communication - all skills that students need to experience success and fulfillment in life. For teachers who desire to expand the use of technology in the classroom as well as allow for independent productivity from students, this is a resource to explore. ,Gifted Child Today, 10/1/17
