In this episode, Jonathan Nalder (@jnxyz) and Leanne Hanson (@LeanneHanson) are, once again, joined by Paul Signorelli (@PaulSignorelli) to discuss their connections through the New Media Consortium.
In this episode, we’re joined by not one but two guests: Keith Krueger of the Consortium for School Networking and Samantha Becker of New Media Consortium. They’re both here to talk about a joint project between their two organizations called the Horizon Report, an annual initiative focused on identifying the technological trends that are driving educational change, sponsored by Share Fair Nation via a grant from the Morgridge Family Foundation. During our conversation, we touch on the research process behind the report, some trends and other information called out in this year’s report, and the companion toolkit that helps K-12 leaders steer conversations around harnessing emerging technologies identified in the report.
For the second year in a row I, along with a bunch of others from schools in Asia, have worked with the New Media Consortium to produce the international schools in Asia edition of the Horizon Report.Today I talk with Victoria (Vic) Estrada who managed the process as editor, writer and cat-herder-in-chief. You know how teachers are! We discuss what the report is about, how it is brought together and some of the findings that came up this year as we looked at the intersection between technology and education.Connect With Vic Twitter: @vic_estr Website: Nmc.orgBioVictoria has been immersed in the world of emerging technologies and innovative learning models with the NMC for three years. She enjoys contributing her talents as an editor, writer, and researcher for the NMC Horizon Report series and the NMC Blog. Before that, she was teaching ESL and training aspiring English teachers for the Fulbright Commission in Costa Rica and working toward social justice with literacy-focused non-profits in Austin, Texas.Pull Quote: “International schools are way ahead of others in how they use technology to improve learning.”
The New Media Consortium, the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN), and the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), with the support of HP, produced the NMC Horizon Report > 2013 K-12 Edition. This fifth edition in the annual K-12 series of the NMC Horizon Project examines emerging technologies for their potential impact on and use in teaching, learning, and creative inquiry within the environment of pre-college education. Six emerging technologies are identified across three adoption horizons over the next one to five years, as well as key trends and challenges expected to continue over the same period, giving educators, school administrators, and practitioners a valuable guide for strategic technology planning.

The New Media Consortium and Open Universities Australia jointly released the Technology Outlook for Australian Tertiary Education 2013-2018: An NMC Horizon Project Regional Analysis. This report applies the process developed for the NMC Horizon Project, with a focus on identifying and describing emerging technologies likely to have an impact on teaching, learning, and creative inquiry in tertiary institutions across Australia. Twelve emerging technologies are recognized across three adoption horizons over the next one to five years, as well as key trends and challenges expected to continue over the same period, giving campus leaders and practitioners a valuable guide for strategic technology planning.

2012 Technology Outlook for Iberoamerican Tertiary Education
The New Media Consortium and the eLearn Center of Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) have released the Technology Outlook for Iberoamerican Tertiary Education 2012-2017 to help inform Iberoamerican educational leaders about significant developments in technologies supporting teaching, learning, and research in tertiary education. The study ran from February through April 2012, based on the work of a group of 45 carefully selected experts. The 12 “technologies to watch” presented in the report reflect the advisory board’s opinions as to which of the nearly 60 technologies considered will be most important to Iberoamerican tertiary education over the five years following the publication of the report. There was an agreement that mobile apps, cloud computing, open content, and collaborative environments are only a year — or less — away from mainstream adoption; tablet computing, game-based learning, personal learning environments, and geolocation are poised within the two-to-three year horizon; and learning analytics, semantic applications, massively open online courses, and augmented reality are four-to-five years out.

Launch of the 2012 Horizon Report hosted by the Friends of the Library
The Horizon Report is aimed at understanding technology trends and uptake in Australian tertiary education. The 2012 edition, ‘Technology Outlook: Australian Tertiary Education 2012 – 2017’, is the fourth in the series and was produced by a group of experts, known as the 2012 Horizon.au Advisory Board, which included staff members from Griffith University. Dr. Johnson addressed an audience of approximately 100 people and spoke about impact of emerging technologies on teaching, learning, research, and information management in Australian tertiary education over the next five years. Dr. Johnson, Chief Executive Officer with the New Media Consortium, is an acknowledged expert on emerging technology and its impacts on society and education and has written five books, seven chapters, and published more than 50 papers and research reports on the topic. Friends of the Library members and other selected guests were given the opportunity to meet and talk with Larry and garner his thoughts on all things innovative and trending in technology during a cocktail function. If you would like to be invited to similar cocktail functions, please register as a Friends of the Library at http://www.griffith.edu.au/library/friends/becoming-a-friend
The Technology Outlook for Australian Tertiary Education 2012-2017 reflects a collaborative effort between the New Media Consortium and Griffith University. The research underpinning the report makes use of the NMC’s Delphi-based process for bringing groups of experts to a consensus viewpoint, in this case around the impact of emerging technologies on teaching, learning, research, and information management in Australian tertiary education over the next five years. That group of experts, known as the 2012 Horizon.au Advisory Board, is comprised of a body of knowledgeable individuals, all highly regarded in their fields; collectively the advisory board represents a range of diverse perspectives across the learning sector.
