I bought this book for teachers in my building who needed a guidebook. Many teachers took advantage of this resource and became more independent of the technology coordinator. This book has many ideas for technology integration as well as ways to involve students and parents in fund-raising activities and community awareness of the "computer lab" in the schools. This book also provides many internet resources for a long list of subjects. I enjoyed the book as a light read and as a handy reference.
