This TED Talk from Raj Dhingra discusses the ability for technology to improve education and its future.
Designing some sort of technology to enrich my classroom is a tall order, especially in the seven minutes allotted for Afternoon Pages. It seems as if the future of technology has no limits, and its place in the classroom has exponenetial benefits.
My gadget, coming soon, is the WiFi Pencil (TM). While I think technology is wonderful, it cannot be implemented without proper access to it. This pencil will allow students access to the internet, and be their own device. It has a holographic feature that is their "laptop". The pencil is relatively affordable, and is made through the schools, this way it is accessible to all students.
