Synopsis
As technology has become a ubiquitous part of education in the 21st century, it is now imperative that students become technologically literate by knowing what technology is, how it works, and how it can be put to use to attain goals.

From computers and the Internet, to video and sound editing software, to new research tools, education for gifted children in the 21st century offers exciting opportunities. Let this book show you how to incorporate these technologies in your classroom.
