Subject: [ifets] Technolgy and Lifelong Learning

Dear IFETS Forum Members, Dear Bob, Dear Dr.Kinshuk,

  I am watching very closely the ongoing discussions regarding, Technology
and Tomorows. And, I would like to add some more important threads to the
ongoing discussion to put some flame, to stir up.

Today, when I was reading past issue of Communications of ACM (CACM)
Magazines, there I found surprisingly the following statements re.
Lifelong Learning (article) written by Dr. Carol Edwards in the May 1993
Issue of CACM.

Dr. Carol Edwards writes...

Technology can make the lifelong learning a reality. With electronic
tools, people can learn virtually any time and place they choose without
obstacles such as poor transportation, fear of street crime, or lack of
expert teachers (this I can not understand). Technology makes learning a
private and personal experience, and seems to motivate learners - a
particularly important factors for adults and children who experiences
difficulty with traditional educational methods..

More in next mails...

Any thoughts??

Kind Regards
Arun
