1. Rapid Acceleration
of Intuitive
Technology

2. The Big Ideas
• NUI-natural user interfaces
allow students to interact
with material in much
more natural fashion
• Intuitive ways to interact
with the internet and
unlimited knowledge
provide perfect environment
for open ended, and
informal, exploration

3. Haptics
• The coolest advance in
technology you’ve never
heard about
• Allows users to feel
textures such as rubber,
silk, edges, etc.
• Interactions with content
on a touchscreen provide
information to a sense not
often seen in class

4. Beyond the GUI
• Current model of interaction
is limited to our ability to
navigate
• CUI-conversational user
interface allows you to talk
with your computer in a
conversational manner. (think
Siri, Dragon, etc.)
• Combines speech recognition
with understanding of
intention, not just transcription
to fulfil commands.

5. Interactive Technology
• User interfaces that allow
you to manipulate content
exactly how you want
• Virtual technology as a
classroom tool could allow
students to interact with
material in a lifelike
manner.
