This book provides a clear blueprint that educators of all experience levels can use to challenge themselves and their students over a single school year. Through stellar units, dare-devil missions, and other activities, the authors show how teachers can progressively transform their classrooms by adding new digital and web tools to meet the specific needs of students. This text includes planning templates, reflection documents, and other resources, making it immediately usable and indispensable for classroom teachers.
