In 1837, the Massachusetts Board of Education devoted part of its first annual report to praising a recent classroom innovation called…the blackboard. This “invaluable and indispensable innovation enabled the “rapid and vivid communication of knowledge.” It created opportunities for teachers to engage learners in ways that had been unimaginable just generation earlier. The same and more will be said of tools that allow interactive learning online. While one outcome of this revolution has rightly caught the world’s attention – the power to democratize access to education on a scale never seen in history – we are just as exited about the promise that these new tools hold for colleges and universities throughout the world. Drew Faust, President, Harvard University L. Rafael Reid, President, MIT
