computer enhanced learning will become more of a way of life in nearly every facet of a students education, from elementary to collegiate level. New innovations include real time simulations,
experimental options for discovery, and will include sound, animation, which will promote active learning on the part of the user. Is there a
downside to computer-aided education? Potentially, as with anything, there is the possibility of abuses and/or shortsightedness on the part of programmers as well as those designing curriculum(Alliance for Childhood, 2000).
