Acknowledgement -- Introduction -- Randall Circle High School -- Chapter 1: Why school's struggle to teach differently -- When each student learns Differently -- Chapter 2: Making the shift: Schools Meet Society's Jobs -- Chapter 3: Crammed Classroom Computers -- Chapter 4: Disruptively Deploying Computers -- Chapter 5: The system for student-centric Learning -- Chapter 6: The impact of the earliest Years on Student's Success -- Chapter 7: Why so many Students Seem Unmotivated -- Chapter 8: Improving Education Research -- Chapter 9: Organizing to innovate -- Conclusion -- Index.
"Provocatively titled, Disrupting Class is just what America's 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, it's likely to be resisted by defenders of the status quo, even though it's necessary and right for our kids. We owe it to them to make sure this book isn't merely a terrific read; it must become a blueprint for educational transformation."
