Read this article and the video of the TED Talk mentioned in the article.

Both the article and the video discuss a possible future of education based on technology; the article questions the role of teachers in this future. Respond to both the article and the video by posting your own OpenLab post. Do you agree with the assertions in the article? Why or why not? Does the article make you feel depressed? Hopeful? It’s impossible to know exactly what the future holds, but a teacher that is adaptable has a better chance of surviving and thriving during a major change in the field; consider ways in which you think technology may change the field of education during your career. What do you think are the best ways to equip yourself for changes caused by technology?

Don’t forget to select the HW#10 category to your post. Your review should be at least 3 paragraphs long and can be as long as you like.

PS, The video focuses on how technology can change learning, not just formal classroom education. You may like to consider this as you prepare your Maple Project…is there a way to use the tool that allows students to take charge of their own learning as they do in the video?
