tools have emerged that can enhance student learning by taking some
established best practices in education to the next level making it
easier, faster, and more fun to learn.

However the catch is that this is an Apps oriented overview. It's intended for webmasters who are installing Google apps on their domains. The tutorials still apply to the individual Google tools, but it might be confusing for folks who are only interested in a single product.
