Carina Bethea's curator insight, June 14, 2015 4:45 PM

This graphic is so unique and informative. 

The "digital learner" section on the bottom right especially is a great visual summary of many of the other articles. It includes "adaptive learning", "eLibraries" and "digital textbooks", which are all topics that have been mentioned in other articles. Some points, like "3D Printing", add another layer of possibilities. 

What strikes me most about this is how the different fields flow together. It is a convergence of media, education and the work world, which makes a lot of sense. Just like the internet, everything is connected. 

It seems to be the top goal to become a literate "digital citizen" in the future...

R U going 2 class? Strategies and Tools for Engaging the Texting Generation — Emerging Education Technologies

R U going 2 class? Strategies and Tools for Engaging the Texting Generation — Emerging Education Technologies | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it
In the U.S., and increasingly abroad, students of high school and college age require a smart phone as a standard part of their lifestyles. In fact, the pervasiveness of these devices can be a real distraction for teachers, who often have to ban the use of them in classrooms.

Of course, it is also possible to embrace these ubiquitous gadgets, and put students to work on them!

There are many types of assignments and tools that can be used to engage students using their beloved devices. Here we examine many tools and techniques that can engage students using smartphones. Many of these can also be completed on a tablet or computer as well, to help provide for students who do not have the luxury of a personal cell phone.

Some interesting points made here. I agree with some of the points made for example setting an example for our students on the correct copyright procedure. Not sure though if the gain would be worth the pain of limiting factors such as slow internet and availability.

David Prince's curator insight, May 27, 2015 12:33 AM

After downloading a couple of clips over time then reading the article I can see how important it is to be mindful of copyright on you tube. As a pre-service teacher it has become clearer that one must demonstrate clear guidelines on downloading information to show students that ethical behaviour is required within the ICT community.

20 Facts About the Impact of E-Learning [#Infographic] | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it
Online learning has become one of the fastest-growing industries in education technology, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon.

The availability of mobile devices on campuses has drastically changed the playing field for e-learning. By 2020, the global mobile-learning market is on track to reach $37.8 billion, according to a new infographic from TalentLMS, a learning management system. By 2019, half of all college students will be enrolled in online courses.
