Nailing Digital Jelly to a Virtual Tree: Tracking Emerging Technologies for Learning
Serim, Ferdi; Schrock, Kathy
Learning & Leading with Technology, v35 n4 p12-16 Dec 2007-Jan 2008
Reliable information on emerging technologies for learning is as vital as it is difficult to come by. To meet this need, the International Society for Technology in Education organized the Emerging Technologies Task Force. Its goal is to create a database of contributions from educators highlighting their use of emerging technologies to support teaching and learning. The database is online, and the demographics that are collected include grade level, size of district, and type of network connections to allow users to search for an emerging technology that might work in their circumstances. In this article, the authors present a list of emerging technologies. The authors also predict the time frames that these emerging technologies would be adopted by K-12 schools. (Contains 7 online resources.)
