Classroom of the future

"Classroom of the future" Was a short video from 1987. This video had a bunch of things in it that the people of that time would be in our future for classroom learning. The question I have answered is that "Is the technology we see here being used in today's classrooms?"

Entering class from home is already happening just not in the since they have in the movie. We have online classes. Then in the second part we have voice recognition, voice synthesis, and we are just now starting with A.I. technology. A lot of what that kid was doing with his information search we can do today. We have the internet to look through those areas, and we also have programs like “dragon naturally speaking” which lets you search and type with just your voice. (My husband loves this program if you like to see it I have it on my laptop and can show you on our next class day). Really the only thing I see we don’t have is the classroom itself.
