The authors intend the book to be a useful resource for educational programs in all health professions. The authors meet their objectives by expanding strategies for various forms of technology as well as for diversity of learners, including generational diversity.

They focus on innovation, creativity, and evaluation and have developed strategies that are appropriate for use in a variety of settings. New chapters cover topics such as cultural diversity in the classroom and the use of multimedia and video techniques.
Assessment:The third edition is in my library and it was an excellent resource for me, both as I completed my graduate program and as I began my teaching career. This update is an excellent addition to any educator's resource library.
