Abstract
On the surface, this article addresses technology in education, but in reality it is about people´s lives. The future is not about technology but about people who will need higher interpersonal relationship skills, collaboration skills and lifelong learning skills to be able to adapt in a rapidly changing world. While it may appear to be an oxymoron, technology will play a key role in helping people achieve these skills. Technology will not replace the teacher but rather be a tool that enables teachers to concentrate on the more important human elements of education, the parts that technology will never replace
