“Provocatively titled, Disrupting Class is just what 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.”
–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
