"Schools as we know them will not disappear anytime soon." (Page 66)
I strongly agree with this statement. When it comes to hearing about educational technology, there are questions on whether schools are really necessary anymore. I believe there is no question that education is the best thing you can give a child. There is so much more they can gain from an education than simply the subject material.
"Distance education is a growing phenomenon." (Page 77)
I find it interesting to just how many people are utilizing the option of distance learning. Another interesting aspect of this is the wide range of age levels of the students using it. It is not only an option for high school and college students, but for younger students as well.
"More and more of the world's accumulated knowledge is spreading to the web." (Page 88)
Whenever new knowledge is gained, it is almost immediately added to the internet. An interesting aspect of this is that knowledge can be found in several different mediums on the web, such as on blogs, social media sites, online newspapers, etc.
