Nicolas Mathy on 21 Feb 12I think this is a positive thing because you can still find ways to communicate with your teacher, and it is great to be able to figure out how you best learn and adapt your learning to that concept.

Why aren't there standardized ways of teaching technology the way we teach any other subject...

While this may be very effective, there are two points of contention. How does technology effectively blend in with learning? and the second is, How do we overcome the negative side effects of using technology?

Students are taking responsibility for their own learning, and the lines between student and teacher are blurring. Learners can determine their strengths and weaknesses and connect with one another to help and teach each other based on their areas of expertise--all they need is Facebook and Twitter.

This quotation makes us think deeper. If lines between students and teacher blur, there can be positive effects, for example, students have responsibility to their own learning and they can determine their strengths and weaknesses, however, there can also be some negative effects, for example, because it's the students who take the responsibility, they might not bother to work hard if they choose not to be hard-working.

I believe that this is one of the most effective examples of how technology is affecting us today. We can now learn at our own pace, which is very beneficial to everyone. By sharing and collaborating with others, we also build relationships and interact in ways that have never been heard of before.

This is of course a problem. I'm sure this world would have much more competent workers if self-taught people can receive credit for what they have done.

The education paradigm of the future is all about the doers, not the academics or theorists. A paper degree won’t stand a chance against action. Start your own company, build a website, organize an event, get a side project, and you’ll make it.

This proves that technology is not only negative as proves this article. We can see that there are a great amount of positive factors to technology.

Personalized learning, I think, is one of the greatest factors of technology, and especially internet. We can see this happening at ISD as well, with some students self-educating themselves through websites online, and even take an exam at the end of the year.

It's amazing to see how many resources there are out there for education purposes. Sources like Khan Academy, TED talks, and YouTube are nothing less than an institution on themselves.

This shows how far technology has come in all these tear. Also shows how it can make education somewhat convenient for students.
