Technology has totally changed the methods of teaching and learning. The innovations and the corresponding opportunities they present are simply too many. Just today alone I experienced not less than two technologies I had not actively interacted with. First it was Elsevier's, I believe, most recent solution, pageburst, and then the not-so-recent Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro.
I attended a demo on the pageburst earlier in the day and then wound the day with attending a lecture at the same time with people located several miles away from me and each other, viewing the same presentation slides and listening to the same voice at the same time. The experience was great.
It is important to note that in between these two experiences, I also was exposed to a novel application of technology to 'tell' human beings what an animal is doing at a particular time without eye witness. This is besides the various curricula innovations and developments I got to learn of.
Technology is great. It also made it possible for me to witness in real time the loss Chelsea FC, the club I support, suffered in the UEFA Champions League.
Technology also makes it possible for me to document these events here and make it accessible to anybody in this world. Great. Isn't it?
More later. Watch this space as this post grows.
