The Garden Tools Metaphor (page 2)—this approach to the improvement of teaching suggests that we have suddenly been delivered a set of new tools and now must decide, without losing a crop, which ones will work best for us, and we don't have a lot of extra time to experiment.

The Course Management Tool (page 10)—a quick understanding of file-cabinets-in-the-sky is a prerequisite for using computers effectively and efficiently in instruction. Here we explain the basics in just one page.

The focus is on teaching strategies, not esoteric theory and not nuts-and-bolts software (page 14).

Ideas for using group email (page 23). Instructors can become users of technology with almost no learning time invested.
