It looks like we will indeed be seeing many changes in classrooms within in the next one to five years. That almost sounds like a long time since technology is consistantly changing. Part of me wants to send this article to every school district so that they become aware of the changes that are headed their way and what their focus should be on. There will be a great deal of training needed for teachers that do not know much about technology and the principal needs to be just as aware in case of extra needed support.
I find it interesting that I am well aware of what blogs, wikis, photo shop, etc. are capable of and how to use them, yet so many people are still yet to even hear these words. My boyfriend's cousin is a teacher right out of graduate school and told me that she has never heard of a blog or pod cast being used in her school and she is actually hoping that these tools will not "take over" her classroom.
Seems like there is still a lot of catching up to do!
