Rating:  - Teachers Discovering Computers: Integrating Technology and Digital Media in the Classroom, Fourth Edition (Shelly Cashman Series
This book is FULL of amazing ideas for integrating technology into the classroom.

I had to buy this book for a class I was taking and it is a book I will be keeping. Great stuff for the beginner and expert tech integrator.

Rating: - Great book for teachers!
This book is great for teachers who need to learn to use computers in their classrooms and for students who are studying to be teachers. I used it for a college class and it was very helpful.
Rating: - Quality Text for Educational Technology
I like using this text because it is well laid-out. The diagrams are easy to read, follow, and learn from. The explanations are clear and focused. Each chapter has a summary and review. The on-line text complements and reinforces the text by supplementing with more information, by offering links to websites, and by including interactive summaries and quizzes for each chapter.
