'Hacking Digital Learning Strategies: 10 Ways to Launch EdTech Missions in Your Classroom', written by an amazing ed tech guru, Shelly Sanchez Terrell, has recently been published.

A summary of the missions is provided through the contents page of the book. Here's a graphic I have created for the ten missions the book contains:
