Many of the observations about the increasing costs of rural education apply in rural Canada as well. Rural schools with highschool enrollments of under 100 students can't be sustained using current models. However, the use of technology would make it possible to deliver world connecting education with a fraction of the cost. Which means that small rural schools could be sustained. We won't be having the standard industrial model of one teacher per class per grade. And maybe that's a good thing, it was kind of an arbitrary arrangement anyway, more for the sake of administration than learning.

Andy Hertzfeld said Google is the best tool for an aging programmer because it remembers when we cannot. Dave Winer, back in 1996, came to the conclusion that it was better to bookmark information than to cut and paste it. I'm sure today Dave wouldn't bother with the bookmark and would simply search from scratch to get the most relevant result.
