The idea is to identify influences during specific time periods &#8211; next year, two-three years, 4-5 years. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nmc.org\/horizon\/index.shtml\">The report <\/a>is focused on higher education, but with the exception of technologies K-12 institutions might actively exclude or ignore (e.g., cell phones in second grade, faculty publication) I would think the trends would have general impact.<\/p>\n<p>The predictions:<\/p>\n<p>Coming soon<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>User-Created Content (flikr, YouTube, blogs &#8211; and tags)<\/li>\n<li>Social Networking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>2-3 Years<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mobile Phones<\/li>\n<li>Virtual Worlds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>4-5 Years<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>New Scholarship (new models of publication and recognition for publication)<\/li>\n<li>MMEducational Gaming<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>They describe the identification process as research based (qualitative). It is in a sense &#8211; they comb the literature for themes. I would rather see some type of survey that quantifies how widely specific applications are used in actual classroom settings, but I suppose with the exception of the &#8220;coming soon&#8221; categories this would show very little. At some point someone needs to get beyond describing cool applications that exist here or there and attempt to identify trends that have encouraged a little higher level of adoption. Perhaps this organization should go back to the list of applications\/activities identified a couple of years and now survey the  frequency of adoption.<\/p>\n<p>I found the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nmc.org\/horizon\/wiki\/Main_Page\">wiki<\/a> associated with this project to be more valuable than the actual report (no offense, but this is the same type of content that seems to be the focus of a couple of keynotes at most conference I have attended recently). The wiki offers plenty of links to examples, connects to <a href=\"http:\/\/del.icio.us\/tag\/hz07\">del.icio.us links<\/a>, and seems to develop the arguments in the report in more detail.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right; font-size: 8px\">Blogged with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flock.com\/blogged-with-flock\" title=\"Flock\" target=\"_new\">Flock<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_942\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"942\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/learningaloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New Media Center (in collaboration with Educause) generates an annual prediction of emerging technologies that will influence education and learning.
