The Horizon Report from the New Media Consortium is a great place to go if you want to see what is coming up that may impact learning and teaching. The consortium looks at the technologies that are being used and talked about and selects a few for further analysis. The final short list is sorted into the technologies that will be ready for regular use within the year and those that are still being explored and need a few years before they are ready for prime time.
This year’s short list includes user-created content, digital audio, virtual worlds, educational games, the potential of mobile phones, and much more. To get the full story, check out the full report:
