But that is not the case with this book! [...] the Authors of these chapters present interesting and promising research results on the use of technology not only in the classroom settings, but also in pre-service or in-service teacher education courses, and most of the Authors represent a balanced approach to applying modern technologies in educational process, not only perceiving their (obvious) advantages, but also some limitations, which I think is very valuable. [...] I recommend this book for researchers at various levels who are keen on extending their knowledge on technologies and innovations in education. Furthermore, it would help educational practitioners to understand the role and importance of using technologies or innovative approaches in their workplace settings and contribute to the development of their technology self-efficacy.'Dr Marta Kowalczuk-WalędziakFaculty of Pedagogy and Psychology, University of Bialystok, Poland
