Darryl’s new book is one to read and ponder.  The thesis is that now is the time to have educational technology make a real difference.  Too long we have seen any form of technology used in a classroom and we believe teaching and learning have improved just because we have used technology.   We have had enough talk about Chromebooks, Google Docs, bits, fiber, 1:1 and VM Ware.  It is time to make some substantial change in teaching and learning and not just use technology.  Too often we assume teaching and learning has changed when all we have done is exchange a cheap pencil for expensive technology.  We continue to play in the sandbox when we should be reaching for the stars.  Darryl’s book provides a pathway for school districts to take this job seriously.

Once again, Darryl uses his gift of “outsight” to view educational issues in a completely unique way. Darryl has the ability to be aware of outside forces that manipulate the time and energy of all educators and uses this awareness to help us understand with an openness that is simply refreshing. Innovation requires outsight and Darryl has piqued our interest with a new instructional delivery method that simplifies the learning process for students who demand personalization.
