FT.com / Technology / Science - Scientists unveil moving 3D holograms - 0 views

  •  
    Oh yeah!  Star Wars has arrived.  Just imagine the possibilities for this technology in the classroom.  Can you just imagine having world famous leaders from every discipline recording a 3D hologram session and then being able to "invite" them to your classroom.  Could lead to a whole new download section in iTunes....

6 Technology Challenges Facing Education -- THE Journal - 0 views

  • In the case of 3D printers, physical models of fossils or proteins or molecules or other objects can be whipped up on the fly, allowing students to interact with them. In the case of virtual and remote labs, schools that lack resources to buy costly equipment will be able to fill in the gaps with less costly alternatives, allowing students to engage in experimentation, even if that experimentation isn't direct.

      I think that it is great that they have already thought about technology for the future. I also think it is great that they have been able to come up with some sort of solution to the schools who can't provide such high tech technology in their schools.
  • Also in the near term is mobile learning.

      I strongly believe that mobile learning is not an affective way to teach any grade level.
  • In the near term, cloud computing was identified as the top trend.

  • In the longer term, four to five years, the two technologies identified in the report were 3D printing and virtual and remote laboratories.
  • I the mid-term, NMC identified learning analytics — the use of data and analytics to customize education for individual students — and open content (also known as open educational resources) as significant technologies that will impact education. The report characterized OER as essentially the opposite of cumbersome, expensive, and quickly outdated textbooks.
  • To recap, the report's authors identified five key trends impacting education over the next five years. Those included: An increasing shift toward blended learning, online-learning, and technology-driven collaborative learning; The growth in the potential of social networks to allow teachers to engage students online; Openness of educational resources and technology is "becoming a value"; BYOD is becoming more common as the cost of technology drops for students; and The role of the educator is being challenged as resources become more accessible on the Internet.

Government schools wired to future, animation, graphics will be new tools for teaching - 0 views

  •  
    AHMEDABAD: Come June, class 11 and 12 science and general students in 4,000 higher secondary schools will learn beyond the boring black and white of textbooks. 2D and 3D animation, graphics and photographs will be the new tools for teaching.
