Hi All, Recently, I was reading this interview: http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/22/7870497/bill-gates-interview-future-verge-guest-editor
and noticed how the same great ideas from the 80's about hypertext, education and the computer revolution will be fulfilled by smartphones. "Before a child even starts primary school, she will be able to use her mom's smartphone to learn her numbers and letters, giving her a big head start. Software will be able to see when she's having trouble with the material and adjust for her pace. She will collaborate with teachers and other students in a much richer way. If she is learning a language, she'll be able to speak out loud and the software will give her feedback on her pronunciation." I want to believe that all these great ideas will be embraced, accepted and nurtured in the real world. The question is: Is the real world ready to embrace these ideas? In the place where you live, Could this happen anytime soon? or many other things must happen before these ideas become a real possibility.
