The 6 Technologies That Will Change the Face of Education -- Campus Technology.

Ed Tech Trends The 6 Technologies That Will Change the Face of Education Makerspaces, wearable technologies and adaptive learning technologies are three of the six technologies that will have a profound impact on higher education within the next five years, according to the NMC Horizon Report: 2015 Higher Education Edition, released Wednesday by the New Media Consortium and the Educause Learning Initiative. The annual report is developed by a panel of higher education experts to identify major developments in education technology and technological trends that will help shape teaching and learning in the near future.

The researchers also identify the six most significant challenges facing education in the coming years. Technological developments are sorted into three categories: those whose impact will be felt soon (or is being felt now), those that will come into p[lay in the mid-term (two to three years) and those that are a bit further out on the horizon (four to five years).

My mind started racing about all the ways that ThingLink could be used by teachers, students and even beyond the classroom.

If you’re not familiar with ThingLink, it makes images interactive. How do you make an image interactive? You upload a still image to ThingLink, and then you can add little icons on top of the image. Those icons become hyperlinks to other web media- websites, articles, videos, sound clips, and much more. Not only can you link to external content, but students can type their own responses onto an icon. Now tell me that isn’t AWESOME?! So, now that you’re hooked, what are some of the ways you could use ThingLink in your classroom? One of the things I like the most about this tool, is that no matter the project or access to technology, you can incorporate ThingLink into your class.

How are you using ThingLink with your students and in your schools? Tech To You Later! Like this: Related. Popplet. Project 252. What is Scribology? Truscribe.
