| The future of online learning is full of possibilities.
Online learning may seem mainstream but it is truly in its infancy. New technologies continue to evolve and capabilities, as well as expectations, continue to advance. Many educators are reviewing these trends and attempting to determine the future of online learning. It seems fair to predict that online learning, and learning in general, will undergo important changes.
A significant factor in the future of online learning will be that almost unlimited availability of bandwith. As a result, the types of formats used to present course material will expand, utilizing multimedia, video and videoconferencing. Computers will become more efficient and more reliable. Processing speed will increase dramatically, as will memory.
One of the most significant developments in the future of online learning will be the PAD or Personal Access Device. Currently, the most essential tools are the textbook, notepad and pen or pencil. A PAD will combine all of these elements into one unit that will provide Internet access to online text and contain a writing surface that recognizes and stores your handwritten notes.
It is conceivable that almost any subject will be able to be presented over the Internet as online learning continues to develop. As a result, we may have the opportunity to learn throughout our lives.
