Have we developed, at considerable cost and effort, classrooms that are digitally rich but innovation poor? Timely and powerful, Disruptive Classroom Technologies: A Framework for Innovation in Education offers a new framework to elevate instructional practices with technology and maximize student learning. The T3 Framework helps categorize students’ learning as translational, transformational, or transcendent, sorting through the low-impact applications to reach high-impact usage. The T3 Framework is a research-based learning model that was peer reviewed and inducted in the prestigious Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Education.

“Dr. Sonny Magana has advanced our understanding of the Visible Learning model a major step forward with his T3 Framework for Innovation. The T3 Framework aligns beautifully with the Visible Learning claims The T3 Challenge is a powerful, credible, and exciting challenge that Magana has offered us: Let’s do it!” —John Hattie, author of Visible Learning
“The T3 Framework is a brilliant breakthrough in our understanding and use of technology for learning. Sonny Magana clearly portrays the nature and difference between translational, transformational, and transcendent use of technology. The identification of transcendent use is itself an innovation. On top of all this he shows us how to navigate through the T3 system with guiding questions, prompts, and rubrics. For those of us working on the frontier of deep learning Disruptive Classroom Technologies, and the T3 Framework is a much needed gift” – Michael Fullan, author of Coherence
“Dr. Sonny Magana is a visionary leader regarding what education can be if we truly embrace the potential of technology. Unfortunately, the bright promise of technology is still in the distance, somewhere on the horizon. If one views schools and schooling through the lens of Magana’s T3 Framework, though, that horizon can become clearer, more attainable, and more inspirational.” – Robert J. Marzano, author of The Art and Science of Teaching.
“Dr. Sonny Magana is an “Innovation Sherpa” who will lead us all up the mountain of education reform. Sonny’s T3 Framework will provide schools and districts with the planning tools needed to go beyond the “$1,000 pencil.” His concept of technology as a disruptive force is exactly how we should be thinking about this historic moment of redesigning the culture of learning. Sonny’s book is filled with powerful stories and thoughtful questions that will inspire and empower educators to improve learning. Moreover, he has provided us with a framework for implementation with detail that simply has not existed with earlier models.” – Alan November, author of Who Owns the Learning
“Dr. Magana’s revolutionary work is the vaccine for education’s virus. The combined impact of the T3 Framework & EduProtocols Cyber Lab is powerful and needs to be in all school districts now!” – Claire Ratfield
