The first time i saw it, I thought the basically about the education and the technologies. Right now, I am researching about it. I think that is really fun to work with another people from others state and the foreigners.

Teaching Style by Using TapScott's Norms

TapScott's Norms can make the lessons more appealing and easier to learn for today's learner. Right now the technology is going very fast. People can use the technology to do their homework or send assignment or whatever. I can give you 2 example what i found. 1. In Speech class, we are using laptop to do our project, send assignment by the internet. 2. College people use laptop, cell phone to take the note, send assignment and etc.
