I.T. 2.0: How Changing Technology is Having Big Impacts on Business (and Education)
In case you haven’t heard yet - the I.T. world is changing. The rise of social computing technologies, generally branded as “Web 2.0″ and including things like wikis, blogs, social networking, RSS, and more are slowly making their way into the business education world. This new movement is called Enterprise 2.0, and it’s no small shift. They’re even having a conference about it next week. But the change encompasses more than just the introduction of new, social software into the formerly stodgy business education world - it also includes the movement of server software from in-house data centers to the cloud, the rise of a mobile workforce, the rebirth of thin client computing, a self-provisioning user base, and more.
This is a short quote from a must read post from ReadWriteWeb
but try this as you read the artcle: replace the word business with education or school (as I did above…); the word CEO with principal or administrator; and the word client or customer with student.
Take time to read the comments on the post too.
