Sobre este item
New York: Doubleday, 1999. First edition. Stated. First printing [stated]. Hardcover. Good condition/good. xv, 221 pages. Occasional footnotes. Illustrations. Index. Limited underlining to text noted. DJ somewhat worn and soiled. Name written in ink at front of the book. The cry for and against computers in the classroom is a topic of concern to parents, educators, and communities everywhere. Now, from a Silicon Valley hero and bestselling technology writer comes a pointed critique of the hype surrounding computers and their real benefits, especially in education. In High-Tech Heretic, Clifford Stoll questions the relentless drumbeat for "computer literacy" by educators and the computer industry, particularly since most people just use computers for word processing and games--and computers become outmoded or obsolete much sooner than new textbooks or a good teacher. As one who loves computers as much as he disdains the inflated promises made on their behalf, Stoll offers a commonsense look at how we can make a technological world better suited for people, instead of making people better suited to using machines.
