Blog Reflection #6

Our world is changing rapidly. Corporations are moving towards 4 day weeks to save on operating costs, more and more employees are electing to work from home via VPN, the list goes on and on. While we are becoming a society that heavily relies on electronic communication we are moving further away from social interaction.

Although, I believe, that this way of communication and learning is not going to go away and our students will become completely bored with how we are delivering instruction if we do not change how we present it to them.

I think the biggest prevention is our desire as humans to have contact. Personal interaction is still very important in our society and many do not want lose that.

If I could change anything I would change the way our students have access to communication. I would allow smart phones and Ipods to be used on campus and come up with innovative ways to assess the knowledge of my students.
