General Search - Education technology the future (with google) 5 websites.
ceRebrally in the initial article in 2004, there was banter about the www increasing in size every 90 days whilst the internet doubled yearly. What about now and what does it mean for educators?

We need to be preparing them for a future that few of us can even visualize." Dr. Mark Edwards. Former Sup., Henrico County, VA Public Schools. Cool.
