The Law of Accelerating Returns by Ray Kurzweil TED Talks – Ray Kurzeil on how technology will transform us.

What does it mean to be a teacher…what does it mean to be a teacher in the 21 st century, with students who are digital natives. Students who can be exposed to a technology and manipulate, manage, create and publish with very little direction?
Our instinct is to cram new technology into an existing model. When this is done, all we are doing is sustaining what already exists. We are not creating a shift.
