The Technological Future of Learning
In honor of Global Learn Day VIII, Robin Good has posted his list of the ten technologies that will change the way we learn in the future.
The technologies he lists are:
- Search technologies
- Data visualization tools
- Blogs
- Audio and video
- RSS
- P2P
- Unlimited storage
- Unlimited bandwidth
- Real Time Collaboration
- Collective and Collaborative Filtering
(One technology I'm glad he omitted was Learning Management Systems.) These seem like the good start of a list, but... none of these are really about the future. Nearly all of these technologies exist today. Sure we don't have unlimited storage or unlimited bandwidth, but that's an evolutionary advance, not revolutionary. What kinds of blue-sky technologies can we imagine?
