Stringer Keefe (education, Lesley University) and Steiner (technology/instruction, Boston College) bring current methodologies and theories to technology and instruction in K–12 through an innovative approach called the X Framework (XFW). It is composed of four pieces: technology fitness, proactive teaching, universal design for learning, and assistive technology. Seasoned teachers through education students will find the X Framework approachable and well supported by research. The book is organized into two parts: “The Technology Mindset” and “Remixing the Classroom.” The authors contend that XFW can shift educators out of traditional practices that do not address all students’ needs. Different learning needs, styles, and backgrounds demand a practice that provides an “increased opportunity to access the curriculum.” Stringer Keefe and Steiner also provide straightforward and accessible information about classroom technology approaches, devices, hardware, software, and programs that can inspire all educators to try something new and remold their classrooms. Included at the end of the book is a helpful reference list that encourages further research, reading, and exploration. The content focuses on current K–12 teachers, but preservice education students will also gain valuable insights into the realities, challenges, and opportunities of K–12 teaching.Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals and practitioners.
