This text focuses on integrating computers into teaching through the use of an inquiry-based, easy-to-use model for creating lesson plans.

In addition, this text provides many practical examples and tips throughout to facilitate student understanding of chapter content. Coupled with this approach is an underlying foundation that addresses the National Education Technology Standards for Students and Teachers and the national curriculum standards.
