Technology and the Diverse Learner provides a substantial amount of information in an easy-to-read format, which is important since so many books on this subject use an extensive array of technical terms that are often confusing and impossible to apply in everyday practice. -- Julie Box, National Board Certified Teacher

"This book would be valuable to any science teacher or educator who teaches a diverse population of students, including inclusion students. It is a valuable tool for the general educator, whether a ′techie′ or a novice at new technologies; it is a source of creative ideas that provide and overview of different technologies that can be used with specific learners." -- Science Scope, September 2005 Published On: 2005-09-01
