The 21st Century Learning environment...
...is all about connectivity - accessing and utilizing the tools of the web, anywhere, anytime. Connectivity is the catalyst that is fundamentally changing classroom learning in the same way that it is fundamentally changing the business world. There are four major components of this leading this change - WIG'M.
Wireless: The world is your classroom through ubiquitous connectivity. Without connectivity, you might as well provide students with Big-Chief writing tablets.
Internet (web): The new online environment will squash the proto-typical computer loaded with client-based software. If it does not run on the web, it will die.
Google: Google is the archetype for the wireless, online environment. The developers at Google are aggressively molding the future where applications are web-based instead of client-based, and where knowledge is built on the web.
Moodle: Online learning is here. Moodle is an online course management system, which helps educators create effective online learning communities through strong grounding in social constructionist pedagogy
