Review:

'This is a very readable text which would be of interest to those intending to become more innovative in their teaching practice.' - Innovations in Education and Teaching International

'Each case study tells a story rather than setting out a piece of research, and this makes the individual chapters very readable.' - Nick Rushby, British Journal of Educational Technology
