Good one, Bonnie!

More tapping into the power of digital multimedia text and etextbooks. Should happen someday soon I assume, but has not yet and it is there to be had.

Failure to embrace and build online community better with existing LMS tools. As opposed to just using what is easiest for the instructor or the designer

Popularity with MOOCs

Digital divide continues with rapid change in technology tools...

By the time developing countries catch up, the technology tool

becomes outdated.. also the slow development of solar-powered devices

for developing countries

More use of e textbooks and online

resources

The quick pace of turnaround for tech... just when you get started, things go away.

Going to place this one half way between

and Virtual Words. Seemed like good

potential, but also I just personally had

a hard time warming up to the experiences.

Going online is not easy. Much prepration and design has to take place in order to have a successful online teaching/learning experience.

This virtual world platform was predicted by some to change education, but obviously it didn't

(see disappointing section though)

Still have libraries

# data[].attributes.body
What didn't happen is faculty all

learning the technology and trying

it out in their courses.

Disappearance of print
