Education and Technology should be able to work hand in hand, especially now that we are in the technological age.
 
There are a few things we need to look out for. Networking is a plus in education today. The internet would be like this really really big and extensive library thing so that students wont have to grovel in real libraries and get lost in the way just looking for a book in a certain topic.  Another thing is visualization. The sense of sight is like the culmination of all the senses, and there's also a saying that seeing is believing. Interfaces would also help in educational technology. Not only would it be an andvancement in technology, but it would also help in the facilities needed for education. Artificial Intelligence would also be a big help. Self-Explanatory, really. ^^ Finally, what would all these wouldnt be possible if we didnt have the equipment to use them with. :D

But that doesnt just stop with technology. We also have to look into the people who handle the education: the teachers. The teachers should be knowledgeable in teh subject they are teaching and in teh technology they use. Also, with the availability of the internet meaning a more broad classroom, the teacher should at least learn a few different languages to be able to interact with students and teachers aroudn the world.
