• Technology has become an essential part of who we take
ourselves to be, influencing our beliefs and desires, our
plans and goals, our visions of what we are, have been,
and might yet become. Our identities are to a great
extent determined by the roles we play. And these roles
are often created and constrained by — if not wholly
dependent upon — our technology. In its many forms,
technology is both something we create — an expression
of our understanding and our mastery of the world — and
something that recreates us, fashioning new roles and
reshaping old ones. (http://ubiquity.acm.org/article.cfm?id=1670827)

21. FINDINGS

22. Learning Return
• Researchers find that extracting the full learning return
from a technology investment requires much more than
the mere introduction of technology with software and
web resources aligned with the curriculum. It requires the
triangulation of content, sound principles of learning, and
high-quality teaching—all of which must be aligned with
assessment and accountability. CISCO 2009

23. Personal & Organisational Behavior
• Hyperconnectivity refers not only to the means of
communication and interaction, but also to the impact this
phenomenon has on both personal and organizational
behaviour. OECD 2012
