In this book, editors Chris Dede and John Richards gather key research on the development of digital learning, moving the debate to a broad view of how digital teaching platforms can provide solutions to current classroom challenges. The Harvard researchers identify and describe this new, comprehensive technology solution, which gives educators a 360-degree view of student achievement, personalized learning opportunities, and classroom effectiveness. The Digital Teaching Platform (DTP) brings the power of interactive technology to teaching and learning in classrooms. In this authoritative book, published by Teachers College Press, top researchers in the field of learning science and educational technology examine the current state of design, and research on DTPs, the principles of evaluating them, and their likely evolution as a dominant medium for educational improvement.
