The Future of the Web, Intelligent Devices, and Education
Strauss, Howard
EDUCAUSE Review, v42 n1 p33-34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46 Jan-Feb 2007
In this article, the author looks to the past for trends in hardware, software, networking, and education and attempt to extrapolate where they are going and what their broad implications might be. However, there are many different ways that trends can be interpreted, and it is easy to pick trends that support one's thesis and ignore ones that don't. This article may prove to be a road map for the future; it will at least provide some new visions of what could have been and what still might be.
