"By 2020...students will be taking up to 60 percent of their courses entirely online."
"Colleges that have resisted putting some of their courses online will almost certainly have to expand their online programs quickly."
"The migration of most learning to computers may lead to a new kind of “dispersed university”... Why go to a bricks-and-mortar college ... when virtually all learning takes place online?"
The College of 2020: Students


...we are always already working, creating, teaching, collaborating, learning, publishing, sharing (etc.) in a distributed, networked, collaborative world. 
...instructional spaces that are fundamentally hybrid;  both synchronous and asynchronous, physical and virtual, social and networked.
