      Be sure to read what the forecast is in the year 2020! It will get you thinking!
  •  
    Major forces of change are challenging us to realize a world of learning that: * Puts learners at the center * Leverages technologies and human capital in new ways * Supports anytime, anywhere learning * Includes a diverse range of institutions and organizations, not just schools. This world of learning will make it possible for all learners to develop deep knowledge and abilities in order to thrive throughout their lifetimes. To make this vision a reality, new ways of thinking and acting will be required.

      Nearly two years old, but talks about mobile education, open content and electronic textbooks. The author predicts these technologies will be mainstream within two years. We're falling a little short of that timeline, but I think these technologies are coming.

    How fun is this website? Similar to Diigo in that you are able to collect things or websites that interest you all online!

    I'm a guy, so I don't dare join, but maybe I can for the sake of education. I think a lot of my students would use something like this in an educational way...then in a personal way...and even more for education!

As Mobile Devices Multiply, Some Colleges Turn Away From Building Campus Apps - Technol... - 0 views

shared by Ann Franz on 02 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • College officials who favor mobile Web sites say that developing apps is getting too expensive. It can require creating and updating multiple versions of a single program, one for iPhones and another for Android phones, for instance. By contrast, a single mobile Web site can work with all kinds of devices, potentially lowering development costs.
    • Ann Franz
       
      Cost savings for your college if it is thinking of purchasing mobile apps, instead there is a new single mobile website that can lower the cost.

      I really like this site for blogging in the classroom - especially if the students are younger or new to blogging. Students can respond to a blog post/question you give to the class, the blogs are private to only your class, and you can preview all posts before they are published for others to see.
