The document discusses the future of digital learning environments. It outlines several technical options for education using new technologies like the internet and computers. These could enable new ways of teaching and learning through wisdom of crowds approaches, open source media, and peer production. However, implementing new digital education comes with economic costs and challenges. The document advocates for a long-term, backcasting approach to research new and challenging ways to educate students using media in a new digital era.
