Technology and Innovation 2025 - 0 views

    If you are interested in learning about future trends and forces of change, this is one of the must-read reports. The report comes from Toffler Associates - this is Alvin and Heidi Toffler's company. They wrote Future Shock about 40 years ago. The book noted ideas that are being bandied about today by trend-watchers, and the Tofflers identified these trends a generation back. I think I still have a copy of the book I read eons back. I don't know whether a kindle edition is available. It's a must-read for anyone interested in understanding trends.

  • Third, “requiring student interaction just for the sake of interaction may lead to diminished completion rates. Again, standards for online teaching should not contain arbitrary thresholds for required interaction.”
  • This doesn’t mean we should discourage interaction, but it does mean we should not measure the quality of a program based on inputs like seat time.

    This is an interesting study on online learning. The results are counterintuitive to our thinking.
