In Classroom in the Cloud, Jared Covili and Nick Provenzano not only answer this question with a resounding Yes, they supply real-world anecdotes and direct quotes from teachers and students about the amazing cloud-based applications they share. Want innovative tools and practice? It's in here. Want step-by-step instruction for implementation? You've got it. Want an array of tools for all grade levels and subjects? It's covered. Best of all, this book provides powerful cloud-based learning tools and outstanding narratives from two of the most renowned EdTech gurus in the business. Covili and Provenzano have written the go-to guide for cloud-based learning. The classroom may now be in the cloud, but this book will be at my side any time I need tech tools that are creative, easy-to-use, and fun for teaching and learning."
