Classrooms of the future

Classrooms have barely changed in the past 10 years aside from the addition of smart board to help aid learning. Paper and pen is still used and children develop their writing and reading skills on a daily basis. However, how will thing change in the next 10 years?


I found this picture online and thought how amazing is would be to have a classroom like this, not annoying projector to block and no board pens that are not in sync with the smart board. Using your hands in a marked space to use technology seems so far away, but could be closer than you think. 

Imagine removing all paper and pen for tablets and laptops, no mess on tables and everything at your fingertips? Not an ideal future for reading and writing skills but perfect for people trying to push forward the idea of technology taking over and becoming an even bigger part of our lives compared to now, would we let the fascination of new technologies take over our basic skills?

It’s not abused, it should work well especially in science lessons where children miss out on experiments due to lack of resources and time, you could simulate it.
