Aloha from sunny Hawai'i. What's Ahead for New Technologies and Learning, is very dear to us. Over the past three decades, Jim and I have gone from slide rule to spreadsheet, from letter writing to email, and from typewriters to typesetters. No matter what technology we use, it is still the human experience that is most important to us.
Students learn from teachers, their peers and knowledge experts.
No one learns from a computer. On the other hand, technology can and has facilitated learning. It has increased the volume of information available and made it accessible to everyone. Information generated in one location is broadcast throughout the world in minutes. We believe that the dawn of the new millenium is a good time to reflect on how we have been and will be using technology to facilitate our work as educators.
