A new study forecasts the next generation learning environment.
From the creators of Virtually Inspired, a website that showcases pockets of digital learning innovation worldwide, comes “The Classroom of the Future” whitepaper. This downloadable document examines next generation learning.

Learners will expect convenient and continuous access to active and authentic, customized formal and informal self-directed learning.
