Technology is radically transforming the way education is delivered and
part of this transformation is taking place right inside our classrooms.
From the ancient one-room school to the 20th century classroom where
we have been taught, the classroom, as a pedagogical concept, has never
witnessed such a transformational revolution as is the case now with
the uptake of digital technology.And guess what this is only the
beginning.
The pace with which technology is developing makes it really impossible
for anyone to predict what kind of classrooms we will have in the next
few decades. What is apparent, however, is the fact that new ways of
learning are mushrooming here and there as a direct impact of the
embrace of this technology in education. Mobile learning, blended
learning, flipped classroom, to mention but a few, are some immediate
examples that come to the surface when talking about this interactional
relationship between the digital and the educational.
This excellent graphic below sheds more light on how classrooms have
been transformed by technology and draws clear comparisons between
several learning modes. I invite you to have a look and share with us
your thoughts about it. Enjoy
