Best resource for educators..

I used this as a text in my professional development courses. Everyone loved it.I've reordered for all my courses next year. A must read!

Great for teachers starting in the profession

This book allowed me to work with the interent in many areas. I have been able to locate information I did not believe existed on-line. Williams explains things in easy to understand language and then walks you through the exercise. The glossary is also very helpful for the computer neophyte. The attached CD installs Adobe Acrobat Reader and explains its many uses. I found this particularly helpful in downloading material on-line. This book is a must for any person wanting to use the Internet effectively.
