The four walls that have defined the average classroom back in 1998 have been brought down. Children now experience virtual worlds, which they only could dream of, through their schools and at home. Much of the instructions students receive is delivered through broadcast professionals around our solar system. Students are able to interact with the broadcasters and participate in experiments taking place thousands of mile away. They are able to take virtual field trips without leaving their interactive desktops in whatever school they might be enrolled in.
Teachers have access to many innovative teaching aids.
They are assisted by technological tools such as electronic chalkboards which act similarly to a touch screen video on the basic desktop computer, only on a larger scale. Items on the screen are viewable by both students in the classroom and others that are given access around the world. By either touching the screen, pointing a wireless mouse or by voice recognition, teachers and students are able to manipulate or add to the board. Students are each seated at in interactive desktop. They no longer need paper and pencil or rulers and glue.
