    The teachers and administrators at our case study sites expressed different reasons for bringing technology into their schools. Many teachers at case study schools cited a belief that computer-based technologies could provide support for thinking processes.

  • It is likely, however, that cloud-based technology will be the foundation for educational technology and that remote, online learning will continue to grow at a faster pace.

      I feel like this will likely be the case in the future.  With technology growing so fast and all, I feel that online learning will grow more and technology based in the classroom will grow more as well.
  • Will the developing world catch up with the developed world? Will residential colleges be as popular as they are today? And what about degrees…will they still mean something to employers?

      These questions are very important to ask our selves.  Especially as teachers.

  • This visualization attempts to organize a series of emerging technologies that are likely to influence education in the upcoming decades. Despite its inherently speculative nature, the driving trends behind the technologies can already be observed, meaning it's a matter of time before these scenarios start panning out in learning environments around the world.

  • The future is about access, anywhere learning and collaboration, both locally and globally. Teaching and learning is going to be social. Schools of the future could have a traditional cohort of students, as well as online only students who live across the country or even the world. Things are already starting to move this way with the emergence of massive open online courses (MOOCs). For me, the future of technology in education is the cloud. Technology can often be a barrier to teaching and learning. I think the cloud will go a long way to removing this barrier. Why? By removing the number of things that can go wrong.

      I feel like so many schools are so anxious to have new tablets and advanced technology for their students, but do they have an educational goal that they are trying to reach by utilizing this technology or is it simply to keep up with a newer generation?

      I know so many teachers and even professors at the university that have very little experience or understanding of technology. It is frustrating that technology is available and very helpful but still some educators have no idea how to utilize it and therefore the students do not benefit from the positive learning they could be experiencing.
  • As technology evolves, so must the teachers
  • eacher is able to engage with each student and immediately determine what their needs are
  • The first annual Digital Learning Day falls on February 1 and will celebrate innovative K-12 instructors who successfully bring technology into the classroom by assigning online course content, using adaptive software for students with special needs, and utilizing online student assessments and other digital tools

    Technology is ubiquitous, touching almost every part of our lives, our communities, our homes. Yet most schools lag far behind when it comes to integrating technology into classroom learning. Many are just beginning to explore the true potential tech offers for teaching and learning.

    I like incorporating various forms of technology into science lessons, like exploration and sites that have a web cam for viewing things that we couldn't access on a field trip.

    I agree with Cody. Why is it that schools are lacking in the technology department when it effects our lives so much?

    I love that this article says that Teacher's aren't just a fountain of knowledge being poured into a child's mind. Peer evaluation can also help a student learn from their's/other's mistakes and achievements.
