As future teachers we can offer so much to our students with the growing technology we have. Going from the 2.0 world to the 3.0 world gives our students endless possibilities. According to Carly Fiorina,
"We have gone from a vertical chain of command for value creation to a much more horizontal chain of command for value creation" (208).
From that one quote we can see the endless possibilities for our students. Instead of doing the same old discussions, blackboard and overhead copying of notes, we can incorporate so much technology into the classroom. We can bring in blogs and the Internet world so that communication can be easy for everyone and so that students can communicate with other students of other areas. We really don't have to be the sole teachers to our students anymore, their peers can also be educators to them and that can be seen through the 3.0 world.

What, in fact, does it mean to go from a vertical chain of command to a horizontal chain of command? You quote Fiorina but then generalize...true, we are no longer the sole teachers of our students in a 3.0 world. Continue to reflect on what this means in relationship the different "classrooms" vertical vs. horizontal "chains of command" construct.
