    Does this mean we don’t need to spend money on textbooks anymore? How do teachers assess learning with digital media? There is learning going on. The students teach the teachers.

    Great video that really demonstrates how student are influence by and learning with digital media.

    although the students interviewed are north-Americans, in many parts of the world, the same questions are imposed to teachers. How can we adapt to the Digital Revolution?
