Horizon Report 2014 This project is based on research published by the Horizon Report. The Horizon Report addresses technology trends that are currently influencing education and global society today. The six trends that are addressed in the current Horizon Report include:

(1) Cloud Computing (2) Mobile Learning (3) Learning Analytics (4) Open Content (5) 3D Printing (6) Virtual and Remote Laboratories.

During this project students will be assigned one of the technology trends to research and report about to the larger global collaborative project. Students will research and collaborate in writing an eBook on a Wiki about the technology trend and its influence in education and the larger society. In addition, students will create a video about their topic and submit it to the Flat Connections Global Project Summit.
