Educators that are not focused on the future have already been left behind.  I have focusretro-dudeed on NMC.org and the Horizon Report.  Here is another report published in EdWeek.  This report focuses on areas that educators need to be preparing themselves to engage.

I really like the pairing of mobile technology and parental engagement.  These two must coincide.  We need to bring parents into the 21st century with our students.  Failing to do both simultaneously will bring about bad results.  So, it’s time to put on our “future vision” goggles and seriously think about what tomorrow has in store for us all.
