Refreshingly balanced piece on the possibilities of EdTech — thank you.

I’m a strong advocated of blended learning but gladly acknowledge your point on the challenges of implementation. I teach small groups of kids (for fun) and my attempts to plan sessions based on the Flipped Learning model usually result in a confused lesson plan from which pure chaos ensues. But I think we’ll get there with experience.

In your vision of the future classroom, I hope there is room for traditional tools. Pen/paper takes some beating as a tool for brainstorming and problem-solving. Much of learning has to be touched and experienced outside the confines of the digital world.
