“While attention to choosing the appropriate technology for learning and assessment is a prerequisite,
it is the skill and attitude of the trainer and assessor that determines the effectiveness of technology integration into learning and assessment design.”
(adapted from http://techteaching.net/teachers.html)

The 2010 Horizon Report A qualitative research project established in 2002 that identifies and describes emerging technologies likely to have a large impact on teaching, learning, or creative inquiry on college and university campuses within the next five years
The 2010 Horizon Report Trends
The abundance of resources
and relationships made
easily accessible via the
Internet is increasingly
challenging us to revisit our
roles as educators in sense-
making, coaching, and
credentialing.
People expect to be able to
work, learn, and study
whenever and wherever
they want to
The technologies we use are
increasingly cloud-based,
and our notions of IT
support are decentralized
The work of students is increasingly seen as collaborative by nature, and there is more cross-campus collaboration between departments

The Future
The 2009 Horizon report research trends
Technology is increasingly a means for empowering students, a method for communication and socialising, and a ubiquitous , transparent part of their lives.
The perceived value of innovation and creativity is increasing
Technology continues to impact how people work, play, gain information, and participate in communities
The 2009 Horizon report trendsThe way we think
about learning environments is changing
Practices for evaluating student work will evolve in response to the changing nature of learning and student preferences for receiving feedback
Ageing learning environments do not easily allow for embracing the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs), or enable the sorts of learning support systems being promoted by modern theorists
The 2009 Horizon report trendsThere is a growing need for
formal instruction in key new skills, including information literacy, visual literacy, and technological literacy.
There is a growing recognition that new technologies must be adopted and used as an everyday part of classroom activities, but effecting this change is difficult.

The technology used in this presentation?
Our goal as educators is not to be a passive consumer of information or to simply tune in when the time is right, but rather to be attentive in a world where information is everywhere. To be peripherally aware of information as it flows by , grabbing it at the right moment when it is most relevant, valuable, entertaining, or insightful. Dana Boyd
