About this title

Review

"Teachers want to teach, and students want to learn, skills that map to 21st century careers. Adobe Spark has struck a nerve because it helps build visual communication and problem- solving skills by making creation fast, fun, and frictionless. It has been so gratifying to see the impact that Spark has had in the classroom, and Monica Burns and Ben Forta have beenguiding educators from Day 1. This book will let you benefit from their insights and help you get the most out of Spark, regardless of your task or curricular objective." -- Aubrey Cattell, VP, Adobe Spark + CC Education

"Adobe Spark is a digital creation game changer and educators Burns and Forta have created the resource to empower any teacher to make students thinking visible and their learning come alive with this simple, yet powerful, tool. 40 Ways to Inject Creativity into your Classroom with Adobe Spark is a clear and practical guide to take student communication,reflection and creation to the next level. Burns and Forta don't give us a 'how to use AdobeSpark,' instead they focus on "how to make student creation the driver of learning." This book is standards-driven keeping the focus on the learning and not on the tool." -- Rebecca Hare, Art and Design Educator and Author of The Space: A Guide for Educators

"This comprehensive collection of innovative Adobe Spark projects is a creative shot-in-the- arm for anyone seeking to diversify the digital learning artifacts produced in their classrooms. Ben and Monica provide proper insight and inspiration to get learners of all ages creating and communicating original media content. Their detailed lessons are easy-to-follow and ready-to-use tomorrow." -- Andy Leiser, Elementary Integration Specialist, Hastings, Minnesota

"I have admired the work of both Monica and Ben for years. In this book, they have created an incredible compilation of the creative power of Adobe Spark tools, that will allow readers to start integrating technology in a powerful way, right away! Each lesson gives teachersthe capacity to offer their students (and themselves!) a chance to creatively express theirknowledge and ideas. The projects infuse technology in a way that promotes student voice and choice and allows their learning to be presented in creative and meaningful ways. The emphasis on reflection, collaboration, and strong visual communication skills makes this book a true gem in an EdTech space that is many times focused on digitizing worksheets or simple updates to analog practice." -- Michael Cohen, The Tech Rabbi and Author of Educated by Design
