"The unprecedented pace of technological change presents us with revolutionary opportunities to improve how we learn and work. This book demystifies the complexities and provides us with an indispensable analysis of what we can achieve with digital learning."
Edmund Monk, CEO, Learning and Performance Institute
"The challenge of getting things right with technology will always exist in a world where increasing speed and disruptive change are the two dominant forces. This well-researched book will help you navigate and address that challenge and provides a deep-dive into the role technology can play as an enabling power for workforce improvement."
Charles Jennings, Co Founder, 70:20:10 Institute
"I would urge you to read this book and then keep it by your side as a coherent and cogent reference as you implement your own technology solutions to learning. It is reliable and sensible: its conclusions valid, and its pathways to action eminently reasonable and worthwhile. Steve also marshals an army of experts around him to clarify and enhance the book's conclusions, so you feel as you read it that it represents the views of the entire industry. Highly recommended."
Nigel Paine, Author, Coach, Broadcaster and Consultant

The only way to turn that threat into opportunities is to learn. We should use the same technology to support our learning. Steve Wheeler shows us how to do just that and he does so in a brilliant way."
