"In ‘The Role of ICT,' Loveless takes a thoughtful look at technology and its impact... Loveless builds a convincing argument to claim that ICT capability in the twenty-first century has moved beyond the technology to become and issue of teaching and learning, influenced by factors beyond the classroom.... Loveless puts forward a number of powerful themes.... From beginning to end, Loveless' book reflects a delightful integration of research and practical experience. She seamlessly weaves concrete examples for teachers through the ideas and investigations of forward thinkers and through progressive ways of thinking about ICT capability.... The research supporting the themes and examples is solid. Loveless is clearly familiar with the literature and research in the field. The bibliography alone would be valuable as a reading list for ICT and education.... The ways of thinking about ICT capability presented throughout the book represent the exciting transformations of ICT and pedagogical practices that are happening in many venues around the world." -Gail Kopp, Canadian Journal of Education, Vol. 27, No. 2&3, 2002
