The document discusses potential developments in educational technology over the next 25 years. In less than one year, MOOCs and tablet computing could see further growth and adoption. Gamification and learning analytics may become more common within 1-3 years. 3D printing and wearable technology such as Google Glass could start being used widely in education within 3-5 years. Longer term developments discussed include more connectivist MOOCs, just-in-time learning, 3D printing becoming mainstream, and potentially implanted mobile technology. However, the document notes that sound pedagogical models will still be needed regardless of technological changes.
