DIGITAL LEARNING DAY

Living in the 21st century we're getting used to technology
 integrated in almost all spheres of our lives. Digital learning
 has become part of educational process. How has it
changed learners' and educators'
 lives? Are these changes positive?

I'm taking a Coursera MOOC E-Learning and Digital Cultures offered
 by the University of Edinburgh. And one of my classmates
 Madhura Pradhan created a video where students from the future
 time travel into the 21st century classroom.

Watch the video and share your impressions and ideas that it
 sparkles.
