The only difference between the classroom or online educational activity and most other facets of life is a deliberateness. Education is most effective when it looks away from the blackboard to see what how the world is operating. Take the iPod for instance. in December of 2005 Harvard Medical School noticed a lot of their students walked around with funny white earbuds. An opportunity was recognized and within 12 months, the entire medical school curriculum (lectures) was made available for download as podcasts.

It wasn’t inevitable. Again, education is only a formalization of what children do most of the time: learn.

How is leaning different today than yesterday? If you have children, you likely already know.
