This article started out very well when it talks about how students are learning Mandarin. I thought it was cool how the first student ws learning how to speak Mandarin. It got even better when the other student was learning a different way. This is a great idea. Tailor to the different way students learn best. This will help each student be more successful and give them more confidence in the other things they learn. Another positive thing of this article tells how learning on computers are cheaper than teaching the way we do today. We can use the money on keeping up with the growing technology. This will keep the children learning in the best way possible and maybe even better than with previous program. It's still early on, but it looks good in the future for students.
Question 1
How will teachers be used in this technology classroom?
I could see teachers being used monitor what the students are doing and helping with any questions the student may have. They can push the child in the right direction.
Question 2
When could we see classrooms with each student having their own computer?
I don't think every student will have their own computer anytime soon, but I do see in the future children will bring laptops or a new portable device to school instead of books and notebooks.

Great post -- I agree with your answers to the questions.
The technology may serve as a best tool for teaching. We should take the best advantage of it, because it can help us save much money and other paper based material, which is also good for the environment. For students, they can review their mandarin lessons as many times as they wish.
