Our Review

This practical guide offers educators concrete strategies for weaving digital resources into everyday classroom instruction across all subjects. Van Gorp provides twenty-four model lessons that clearly demonstrate how to effectively use educational websites, moving beyond basic computer skills to meaningful content integration. The book includes an annotated list of teacher-tested websites alongside student research suggestions and open-ended activities designed to foster critical thinking.

What sets this resource apart is its focus on pedagogical substance over technological flash, offering useful strategies that prioritize curriculum goals rather than just website navigation. Classroom teachers seeking to enhance their instruction with digital tools will find the lesson plans immediately applicable, while the structured approach helps build student research skills systematically. This comprehensive toolkit successfully bridges the gap between internet access and authentic learning, making it a valuable asset for any educator working to prepare students for a digitally connected world.
