Reflection on EDUC-6710I-1 Understanding the Impact of Technology on Education, Work, and Society.


In Understanding the Impact of Technology on Education, Work, and Society, the experts shared and spoke passionately on the significance of technology in the 21st - century classroom, as well as the importance of exposing students to technology in order to prepare them for the life ahead after graduation. As (Prensky, 2010) noted, the future of education is digital, not linear. The millennia learners as coined out by (Dede, 2010) work together to solve problems, they think in video and digital forms rather than texts, and as such, 21st century students thrive in a media based learning environment.
