Review:
Instructors in a number of disciplines, along with education scholars in Europe and the Americas show how the mobile communication technologies can provide educators with another set of tools by which to enrich the teaching and learning process and educational outcomes. Their topics include educational designs supporting student engagement though networked project studies, interdisciplinary perspectives on incorporating mobile technologies in higher education, emerging technologies and fashion design teaching strategies, the innovative use of personal smart devices by students to support their learning, and the learning engagement of business students as a function of reading assigned electronic textbooks. Distributed in North America by Turpin Distribution. --Book News Inc. Portland, OR
