There is a lot to be said for the way in-person contact can benefit a learner. (Online 4-K anyone?) It seems that many schools already are embracing the idea of sharing information with other districts for the benefit of all, but I think "institutions", in the sense that we will still have physical schools, is here to stay.Rob Grangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398176377474907376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397340657312781023.post-54370405582481137162011-09-21T11:02:54.155-05:002011-09-21T11:02:54.155-05:00I think we are in the start of a transformation, b...I think we are in the start of a transformation, but I think we need both (face to face interaction and virtual) for a well rounded future. Are educational institutions ever going to disappear? Are paper books going to disappear? I don't think so for both...I think the usage many decrease. I recently watch a clip with my students about a kindergarten class getting ipads and I asked them if could they (or would they want to) picture their childhood without picture books...they all said "NO". At my school many teachers are fearful of incorporating technology into their classrooms whereas I embrace it. It's definitely an exciting time!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06646867999836989565noreply@blogger.com
