This is a terrific, accessible guide to using scannable mobile tech in education. If youre acquainted with QR codes or augmented reality but havent taken the leap to bring them into your classroom, Monica Burnss book is the perfect introduction. Her ACES framework really helps you take things well beyond the gimmicky wow factor and into meaningful, learning-centered implementation. Without getting too technical, Burns provides enough detail for anyone to begin adding a new layer to their classroom tech. Well done.

I would like to take a moment to thank the network of educators who inspire me daily. From the teacher leaders whose voices are highlighted throughout this text to the Apple Distinguished Educator (ADE) community that has truly changed my life, there is great work happening in classrooms and many stories to be told. This includes ADE Courtney Pepe, whom Ive had the pleasure of presenting with to share scannable technology with teachers across the country.

A special thank you to the team at LitWorld for welcoming me into your programming and providing a space for families to come together for storytelling with technology. Thank you Pam Allyn, Dorothy Lee, Yohanna Briscoe, Jennifer Estrada, Yaya Yuan, and the entire LitWorld team.

And a final thank you to Corwin and Ariel Bartlett for seeing the potential for scannable technology in classrooms across the world.
