Recenzje

"The highest compliment, actually the two highest compliments one author and professor of professional development can pay another such author are 'I wish I'd written that book!' and, 'I will be using this book for myself and for my own graduate and doctoral classes.' Such is the case for Dr. Matt Rhoads's efforts in delivering this timely and futures-based book to fellow educators.
Dr. Rhoads's Navigating the Toggled Term: A Guide for K-12 Classroom and School Leaders, is the sum of his experiences, expertise, research, and most importantly, his passionate commitment to twenty first century education themes and trends. That these themes and trends have in large part been accelerated by a crisis that educational leaders should have foreseen and planned for long before it occurred only accents the importance of this book. Each of Matt's chapters address ideas, issues, and leadership matters that teachers and educators might address in transforming not only their own professional development plusses and minuses insofar as embedding technology into their personal high level instructional quivers but also for the capacity of the entire school systems they comprise for consistency of vision and for unanimity of purpose."-Richard Bernato, EduFuturist, Professor of Education and Instructional Leadership, St. John's University
