In 1970, sociologist Alvin Toffler predicted: ' Within thirty years, the educational systems of the United States, and several Western European countries as well, will have broken decisively with the mass production pedagogy of the past, and will have advanced into an era of educational diversity based on the liberating power of the new machines.'

I pointed out recently that many of the older theories of pedagogy were formulated in a pre-digital age.

As politely as I could, I explained to him that making his students sit through a full 90 minutes of video was not particularly good pedagogy.

Teacher beliefs about pedagogy are central to the successful integration of new technologies into schools. See for example the work of Ajzen and Madden (1986) or Doll and Ajzen (1992).
