Rating:  Summary: Every school should read Review: Oversold and underused is a great read (informative and precise) for any school personel who are interested in learning more about what is happening or may happen with your technology money. Larry Cuban has provided great research that backs up his statements of how computers and technology are being underused in today's educational setting. If you think that the new technology revolution is going to reinvent our educational system, I suggest that you spend a few hours reading this book first.
Rating:  Summary: Are they really underused? Review: The book contains a lot of good information, including surveys, and observations. I do however, have some questions. If computers are so underused, how come everybody is always trying to get more lab time because the computer labs are booked up?Secondly, there are technophobes. Some people just can't handle any kind of technology. How many vcr's still flash 12:00?
