Check out this cool infographic "Envisioning the Future of Education" by TFE Research and Michell Zappa (ht EdSurge). Basically, this visualization tries to show all the emerging educational technologies that might affect education starting from now until 2040. It is full of paradigm-shifting potential, focusing on technology in several different areas, including digitized classrooms, gamification, the opening of information, disintermediation, tangible computing, and virtual/physical studios.

Here is what the creators have to say:

This visualization attempts to organize a series of emerging technologies that are likely to influence education in the upcoming decades. Despite its inherently speculative nature, the driving trends behind the technologies can already be observed, meaning it's a matter of time before these scenarios start panning out in learning environments around the world.

What do you think? Which of these scenarios have the best potential to affect education? And where does EdLab fit into these speculations?
