Check out this amazing video about how technology will affect education. Even though it is a little afield from a direct educational law topic, I showed this video in my Advanced Educational Law class the other day as part of my future directions lecture and the students (K-12 principals) were just in shock. So, I thought it was worth sharing.

Also, a new version has been published, Did You Know III. I don't like it as much as I liked 2.0, but it is still good. It has a little more about blogs and wikis and podcasts and other technology content and it directly addresses education a little more.

Finally, the people that put this video (edit: the first video only) together and are responsible for starting this important discussion are Karl Fisch and Scott McLeod (of At the Schoolhouse Gate fame). Anyway, here is a link to their wiki on the presentation and how you can get more information and engage in more discussion about education technology issues: ShiftHappens.

Anyway, enjoy. I know I did.
