School 2.0 means to me that a lot of schools out there are gonna need funding to be able to keep up. I find it extremely ironic that much of society downplays the importance of the people that have the most influence on it, their teachers.
I also think that communication with others is a huge part of education. It's my biggest argument against homeschooling. Social interaction is one of the most important aspects of public school and one of the most unmentioned. I think it's great that there are so many more ways for students to get involved with each other, especially in different countries and cultures. I hope the future is filled with more diverse assignments that focus on the importance of being a person who learns and is able to contribute to society. It's especially important to steer clear of doing something just because someone, somewhere, decided it would be tested on. The future should provide motivation to educate oneself in useful endeavors.
