A Digital Doorway to the World
The project’s continuing success is owed to the presence of a few vital ingredients: a collection of powerful technology tools in the iBook, willing educators around the globe, and a teacher who did not allow her lack of technical skills to prevent her students from using the Macintosh to open global vistas of learning.
“Thanks to the power of the Macintosh, the global Internet, and imaginative teachers and students around the world,” McGuire says, “I will never teach the same way again.”
