The future of technology in education is that it changes at a fast pace. Today, we have iPads and other mobile technology. They are playing very important role in the future. Four years ago, iPads didn't exist and we don't know what new technology may come up in next four years. The main factor of future education is access, anywhere learning and collaboration, locally/globally. In future, teaching and learning will be social. Schools of the future could be traditional cohort of students, as well as online. It could be available to the students across the country or even the world. Things are moving this direction. For example, OER, massive open online courses (MOOCs), Virtual University etc.
Now, school classrooms are going to change due to cloud and mobile devices. Technology will be integrated into every part of school where teachers, students, and support staff all will be connected. In future, all classrooms will be paperless with cloud, the whole world will be our classroom. E-learning will drastically change teaching and learning where students can learn from anywhere and teachers can teach from anywhere.
Teachers can adopt a flipped classroom approach in future where students will take ownership of their own learning. There could be videos, documents, audio podcasts or interactive images with all of these resources to be accessed via a student's computer, smart phone or tablet as long as student has an internet connection either via Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G or 5G.
