It is obviously true that educational technology changes, and that changes are happening at an accelerating pace. The challenge is to make effective use of new technologies in different learning scenarios in the twenty-first century. In this chapter, four kinds of technologies will be discussed: learning analytics, artificial intelligence, adaptive technologies, and wearable devices. These chosen technologies in each of these four areas are changing and likely to continue to change and evolve for some time. It should be noticed that a technology need not be a specific device, as a technology could be generally understood to be a systematic and disciplined application of knowledge. Implementation issues and the likely impact on learning and instruction of these emerging technologies are also addressed in this chapter.
