But what do we know about its' impact on the learning process? Which possibilities and limits are associated with digitisation? And what are the consequences for educational interventions? Learning Before Technology! discusses these questions using a multitude of evidence and examples from schools and lessons. Central to the authors' argument is that digitisation as a structural measure will bring little benefit. The teachers who bring the lessons to life are much more important. Using evidence from the visible learning research and the impact of digitisation on young children, the authors argue passionately for learning before technology!"--; For many, digitalization is the key to revolutionizing education.
