The Future!
 
I think the future of education is bright! Change is underway; I like the trends towards inquiry based learning, essential questions, 1:1 initiatives, and opened ended assessment. This drive towards a deeper understanding of the concepts and a more hands on approach has become evident in my past two years studying education. The K-12 Horizon Report touched on a lot of things that have been brought to the forefront in this class. Things that stood out to me in the report were: 
  • The shift to deep learning approaches - “There is a new emphasis in the classroom on more challenge based, active learning”
  • Integrating Personalized Learning
  • BYOD & Cloud Computing
  • Wearable Technology – “tracks sleep, movement, location, social media, etc.”
-   How weird would it be to have all students walking around the halls with Google’s glasses on!
