Publisher Description Clay Christensens groundbreaking bestselling work in education now updated and expanded, including a new chapter on Christensens seminal "Jobs to Be Done" theory applied to education."Provocatively titled, Disrupting Class is just what Americas K-12 education system needs--a well thought-through proposal for using technology to better serve students and bring our schools into the 21st Century. Unlike so many education reforms, this is not small-bore stuff. For that reason alone, its likely to be resisted by defenders of the status quo, even though its necessary and right for our kids. We owe it to them to make sure this book isnt merely a terrific read; it must become a blueprint for educational transformation."—Joel Klein, Chancellor of the New York City Department of Education"A brilliant teacher, Christensen brings clarity to a muddled and chaotic world of education."—Jim Collins, bestselling author of Good to Great"Just as iTunes revolutionized the music industry, technology has the potential to transform education in America so that every one of the nations 50 million students receives a high quality education. Disrupting Class is a must-read, as it shows us how we can blaze that trail toward transformation." —Jeb Bush, former Governor of FloridaAccording to recent studies in neuroscience, the way we learn doesnt always match up with the way we are taught.
