Peter:
Apropos of the paragraph below you might recomend:
Burbules, Nicholas and Callister, T. (2000). Watch IT: The risks and
promises of information technologies for education. Boulder, CO: Westview
Press.
It is a short and accessible book which outlines proposes a "critical
literacy" given the recent changes in technology and "information."
