Abstract
Many believe that just as information technology is breaking down the hierarchies and bureaucracies of industrial society, so too will it bring about the demise of education as we know it. Six authorities explore the potential of technology to create a new education system. Moderator John Kernan with panelists (in order of commentary) Alan November, Seymour Papert, John Grillos, Bernard Gifford, Connie Stout, and David Niguidula.
