"Technology won't replace teachers, but teachers who use technology will probably replace teachers who don't" This was just one of the contentious and thought provoking statements made at Learning Through Technology this week in Glasgow.

It's a common psychological phenomenon to feel that although you are separated by distance, the technology actually mediates your connection with someone else. This is where the technology may have failed to support the interaction. It's almost like being there alongside them. London: John Wiley and Sons. Wheeler, S.

In nearly two decades, I guess you learn quite a lot.

I enjoyed my ''trialogue'' with Andrew Jacobs and the audience at this year''s Learning Technologies conference. We didn''t want to stick to the run-of-the-mill conference presentation format, so we opted for a kind of ''staged disagreement'' instead. Some cautionary tales and light-hearted stories were also thrown into the mix.
