In a few years just about everyone will probably have
Web-connected watches and Google
Glasses. Students are already
bringing mobile devices to school that can capture images and actions in our
schools, but as “wearable
technologies” become more popular, teachers and administrators will need to
place additional emphasis on privacy
and etiquette issues. Questions such as —Where will the devices be
allowed?, How will teachers know if students are using the devices if all it
takes to take a picture or start a video is the literal wink of an eye?, What
information must be added to digital citizenship programs?, How might the
devices be used to enhance the curriculum?, and What educational apps are
available for reality-augmented devices?—will need to be addressed.
