In clear and direct prose, Janet Schofield examines ways that computer use is shaped by the social context in which it occurs and how attitudinal and organizational barriers obstruct it. She brings to light issues of gender differences and equity, and she provides sound and thoughtful ideas for improving educational use of computers. This book is for all those concerned with the changing shape of the classroom and the future of our schools as well as for sociologists and psychologists interested in educational computing.

High Tech Heretic: Why Computers Don't Belong in the Classroom by Clifford Stoll, ISBN 0385489765
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.

I Have Computers in My Classroom--Now What?
In I Have Computers in My Classroom--Now What? Bob Johnstone takes you on a tour of the schools, classrooms, and minds of teachers who have successfully incorporated computers into a host of learning situations across the content areas. Through Johnstone's extensive interviews with practicing teachers, you'll find out how programs common to many computers--such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint--can teach students powerful concepts about print, publication, and presentation while they're doing math or language arts. You'll also find out how using video cameras can build writing and speaking skills as well as science content knowledge, and you'll see what great opportunities the Internet provides for authentic inquiry. Johnstone both distills the wisdom of teaching veterans and also lets them share directly with you, teacher to teacher, about why it's worth it to use technology, as well as what works, what doesn't, and how technology supports instruction and planning.

Digital Evidence and Computer Crime: Forensic Science, Computers and the Internet
Digital evidence--evidence that is stored on or transmitted by computers--can play a major role in a wide range of crimes, including homicide, rape, abduction, child abuse, solicitation of minors, child pornography, stalking, harassment, fraud, theft, drug trafficking, computer intrusions, espionage, and terrorism.
Though an increasing number of criminals are using computers and computer networks, few investigators are well-versed in the evidentiary, technical, and legal issues related to digital evidence. As a result, digital evidence is often overlooked,
collected incorrectly, and analyzed ineffectively. The aim of this hands-on resource is to educate students and professionals in the law enforcement, forensic science, computer security, and legal communities about digital evidence and computer crime.
This work explains how computers and networks function, how they can be involved in crimes, and how they can be used as a source of evidence. As well as gaining a practical understanding...
