NMC Megatrends
The world of work is increasingly global and increasingly collaborative
NMC Megatrends
People expect to work learn socialize and play whenever and wherever they want to
The numbers of cell phone users and those with broadband access continues to skyrocket We are global and mobile
NMC Megatrends
The Internet is becoming a global mobile network - and already is at its edges
The numbers of cell phone users and those with broadband access continues to skyrocket We are global and mobile
NMC Megatrends
The technologies we use are increasingly cloud-based and delivered over utility networks facilitating the rapid growth of online videos and rich media
Think YouTube and Facebook
NMC Megatrends
Openness mdash concepts like open content open data and open resources mdash is moving from a trend to a value for much of the world
Authoritative sources are losing their importance increased need for validation and curation
NMC Megatrends
Legal notions of ownership and privacy lag behind the practices common in society
The cloud is blurring these lines
NMC Megatrends
Real challenges of access efficiency and scale are redefining what we mean by quality and success
Solutions that scale are very important Look to other parts of the world for innovations in this area
NMC Megatrends
The Internet is constantly challenging us to rethink learning and education while refining our notion of literacy
Think Henry Jenkinrsquos New Media literacies Traditional literacies are not enough
NMC Megatrends
There is a rise in informal learning as individual needs are redefining schools universities and training
Politically socially and intellectually Traditional authority is also being challenged in academia
NMC Megatrends
Business models across the education ecosystem are changing
Everyone is re-thinking their missions Look to libraries colleges and the publishing industry
Why Change

Project Tomorrow Recommendations
bull Un-tether learning and leverage mobile devices to extend learning beyond the school day and meet all learners in their own world
bull Create new interactive participatory learning spaces using tools such as online classes gaming and simulations online tutors and virtual reality environments
bull Incorporate Web 20 tools into daily instruction especially those that develop collaborative or social-based learning and provide unique opportunities for students to be content developers
bull Expand digital resources in the classroom to add context and relevancy to learning experiences through new media tools
bull Get beyond the classroom walls and make learning truly experiential such as using high tech science instrumentation and creating podcasts with content experts

bull Kids have had different levels of exposure to technology The period of time at which our schools have been wired is fairly short
Basic online entertainment (online videos playing games)
E-commerce (online shopping banking and travel reservations)
Research and information gathering (product research news health and religious information searches)
Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

bull Kids have had different levels of exposure to technology The period of time at which our schools have been wired is fairly short
Basic online entertainment (online videos playing games)
E-commerce (online shopping banking and travel reservations)
Research and information gathering (product research news health and religious information searches)
Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

bull Create new interactive participatory learning spaces using tools such as online classes gaming and simulations online tutors and virtual reality environments
bull Incorporate Web 20 tools into daily instruction especially those that develop collaborative or social-based learning and provide unique opportunities for students to be content developers
bull Expand digital resources in the classroom to add context and relevancy to learning experiences through new media tools
bull Get beyond the classroom walls and make learning truly experiential such as using high tech science instrumentation and creating podcasts with content experts

From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

bull Baby Boomers
bull Gen Xers
bull Gen Yers
bull Kids have had different levels of exposure to technology The period of time at which our schools have been wired is fairly short
Basic online entertainment (online videos playing games)
E-commerce (online shopping banking and travel reservations)
Research and information gathering (product research news health and religious information searches)
Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce

From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

Openness mdash concepts like open content open data and open resources mdash is moving from a trend to a value for much of the world
Authoritative sources are losing their importance increased need for validation and curation

Project Tomorrow Recommendations
bull Un-tether learning and leverage mobile devices to extend learning beyond the school day and meet all learners in their own world
bull Create new interactive participatory learning spaces using tools such as online classes gaming and simulations online tutors and virtual reality environments
bull Incorporate Web 20 tools into daily instruction especially those that develop collaborative or social-based learning and provide unique opportunities for students to be content developers
bull Expand digital resources in the classroom to add context and relevancy to learning experiences through new media tools
bull Get beyond the classroom walls and make learning truly experiential such as using high tech science instrumentation and creating podcasts with content experts

The Internet is constantly challenging us to rethink learning and education while refining our notion of literacy
Think Henry Jenkinrsquos New Media literacies Traditional literacies are not enough
NMC Megatrends
There is a rise in informal learning as individual needs are redefining schools universities and training
Politically socially and intellectually Traditional authority is also being challenged in academia

Business models across the education ecosystem are changing
Everyone is re-thinking their missions Look to libraries colleges and the publishing industry
Why Change

bull Gen Yers
bull Kids have had different levels of exposure to technology The period of time at which our schools have been wired is fairly short
Basic online entertainment (online videos playing games)
E-commerce (online shopping banking and travel reservations)
Research and information gathering (product research news health and religious information searches)
Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS
