As teachers, we want our students to value commitment. We want them to one day go into this crazy world of ours owning a sense of commitment. The world will consequently shine brighter.
The impact of teachers' efforts to switch over technology is a revolution in the making. The education system has transformed overnight, and it will have unprecedented implications on education. The classes will be powered by technology now. The value will be added to the process of learning and less time will be spent on mundane tasks. The experience over the last year should inspire all of us who are involved in education to reflect on our efforts and consider the real impact.

The education futurists see the development of Web 2.0 as the final death knell of the 20th century learning model. The proliferation of open source learning tools, social media technology, mobile learning tools, and the ability of educators to cheaply and effectively construct rich, complex, individualized learning experiences for students is bound to revolutionize education.
In some ways, integrating technology with high school and college curriculum may seem like a simple task, but any experienced educator will tell you it’s definitely not. Shifting from a classroom mindset to an online mindset not only presents significant practical problems, but the transformation can be very difficult for teachers to conceptualize.
Although the potential benefits online learning presents are exciting, shifting the way educators think about teaching and learning is definitely not an easy task. Nevertheless, the more students and their parents demand highly individualized and inexpensive curriculum, educators will be forced to change the way they deliver instruction. The market forces that are shaping today’s schools will, at the most fundamental level, disrupt the current educational model. The problem we face as educators is deciding which tools we should use and the best ways to use them. Finding a solution to this problems might require the sort of radical thinking the edupunks like to embrace.

There are components of an open learning network that can and should live in the cloud:
Personal publishing tools (blogs, personal websites, wikis)
Social networking apps
Open content
Student generated content
Some tools might straddle the boundary between the institution and the cloud, e.g. portfolios, collaboration tools and websites with course & learning activity content.
Other tools and data belong squarely within the university network:
Student Information Systems
Secure assessment tools (e.g., online quiz & test applications)
Institutional gradebook (for secure communication about scores, grades & feedback)
Licensed and or proprietary institutional content
To facilitate the relationships between students and teachers, students and students, and students and content, universities need to provide students the ability to input additional information about themselves into the institutional repository, such as:
URLs & RSS feeds for anything and everything the student wants to share with the learning community
Social networking usernames (probably on an opt-in basis)
Portfolio URLs (particularly to simplify program assessment activities)
Assignment & artifact links (provided and used most frequently via the gradebook interface)
Integrating these technologies assumes:
Web services compatibility to exchange data between systems and easily redisplay content as is or mashed-up via alternate interfaces
RSS everywhere to aggregate content in a variety of places
While there’s still a lot of work to do, this feels like we’re getting closer to something real and doable. Thoughts?
