And at the other we have technological endogamy which believes that nothing is possible or that everything is worse if we fail to adapt to the possibilities offered by the most advanced technology. Is it possible to strike a balance and adopt an outlook which combines the best of traditional teaching methods with the possibilities opened up by new technology? Should education and technology be opposite sides of the same coin?
