Thing # 5

School 2.0 is not something that takes me by surprise, technology is a way of life for most of the population.  Technology is in our everyday lives it has changed how we communicate, discover, and work.  This effect of technology has had a big impact on children and will keep making a bigger impact a technology advances.  School 2.0 is something that educators and schools are going to have to do so that these students can keep advancing.  It is important to teach students in their "normal environment" so that they we keep advancing.  Keeping technology and web 2.0 collaboration and discovery out of the classroom will only hold students back.  Schools in the future will need funding for more technology in the classrooms.  not only computers but tablets and other devices that can be linked to education.  Teachers will be able to create great instructions and learning environments with no limits when in comes to the web.  I believe that there will always be a need for a teachers in the classroom in elementary through high school level education unlike in college were online classes are available.
