The G1:1 international network of learning researchers met to identify major trends and uncertainties that could drive the evolution of learning technology. Using a technique called scenario-based planning, the group created stories of plausible futures that bring to life what collaborative learning may be like in 2015. These stories present contextual changes in technology and education practices that could occur, with each scenario considering a different trajectory. The group considered changes in the political and social goals of education and in the main role of teachers, as well as changes in the economies of publishing content. Using these scenarios as a way to think about long-term research plans could serve to make programs of research in wireless and mobile technology more robust.
