Vidal and Casey have accomplished what few have done before. They present a rational, logical and very practical guide to planning educational technology. With all the hype regarding technology in education it is refreshing to have a planning process that is grounded in reality by making sure everything is considered in its proper order before anything is actually purchased. Highly recommended. -- William C.
