Welcome to IOU Digital Library

Les Lloyd and Gabriel Barreneche present an eye-opening look at projects that are innovating with technology to improve education and, indeed, the very quality of people s lives around the world. From collaborative learning communities and social networks to Web 2.0 tools, MOOCs, and mobiles, a dozen case studies demonstrate tech initiatives that teach students to think and act globally while helping to close the education gap between developed and developing nations. The book describes how students and institutions can reuse obsolete technology in places where it will be new, and the impacts of such efforts on communities abroad. If you are interested in service-learning, internationalization, or study abroad or if you are just looking for a way to keep your organization s old technology out of landfills Educational Technology for the Global Village is sure to inform and inspire you.
