Three drivers for digital school: Context rich essay on what will drive the digital classroom, courtesy of industry analyst & consultant, Frank Catalano. (He originally wrote it for the costly Strategic News Service, but you can read it here gratis.) Spoiler alert: Frank describes how interactive whiteboards (or, "trojan" whiteboards), OER and "adaptive" tools are becoming key platforms for the classroom. We'd add mobile devices to the brew, which we'll bet become students' platform of choice (over laptops). Frank agrees, adding: "Schools pull in iWBs, students push in startphones/tablets. The two merge into a cute and effective Dolittle-an beast--with luck."
