Charles Cook examines the impact of new technology on educational practice. He takes as his central theme the sociocultural nature of education and the importance of the various interactions made possible by new technology. This book presents a thorough and thoughtful contribution to the pedagogical and psychological implications of new technology which will be valuable to psychologists studying development, group processes and education, as well as all those involved in the use of computers in education.

...Crook frames an analysis of computer use in education in terms of a well-developed theory of collaboration in learning...The emphasis on cooperative experience provides a much richer framework than many alternatives that have been proposed...It provides a systematic framework for thinking about computer in education, and methodological tools for those who wish to conduct research in this area...It asks us to stop and think: Beyond just helping children learn to use computers, what should we do to help children use computers to learn?.
–Mind, Culture, and Activity, Summer 1995
