"School will be like a fairgrounds. Learning will take place all the time, in the school building and throughout the town or city, for children and adults. Each child will have a portable computer and a learning program designed especially for him or her with wireless connection to each other. Textbooks will not exist. Your computer will assemble a set of learning activities for you. Students will learn from computer-based games, on-line multiperson games, and simulation of events through virtual reality. By 2050, you will be part of a society in which learning is valued by everyone.
