Dr. Miller Post

As Dr. Miller states, his idea of research education was sitting in a library surrounded by little noise and tons of books. But as Dr. Miller recognizes the future involves coffee house and laptops with thousands of libraries and college databases available at the touch of a button. I can't start to imagine where, and how this new technology will expound, and how long its fingers will be. The fact that a person can be transform his or her lesson plan, or subject material wit hen a matter of minutes is amazing, and extremely beneficial to the students. In my opinion today's' students are adapted to passive learning, which involves hearing a lecture, rather than reading to obtain the desired curriculum. With the podcast, and youtube frenzy and the ability of free access I believe students will excel like never before.
