<p>The world didn’t need another tome about education in the Digital Age. So Jason Ohler wrote a novel. A fun, fantasy-filled, prophetic novel. Part science fiction adventure, part Monty Python, part treatise on the state of education in a high tech world, Ohler imparts what he has learned in two decades of being a pioneer in the world of high tech learning. He wants you to understand the world you are living in and have a good time doing it. </p>
<p>Join computer savant William Tell as he tries to find a path with a heart among the glitz of the high tech world. Led by his mentor Credo--a dot-com dropout turned street urchin turned time-traveling troubadour--and joined by a group of insanely wise helpmates, William discovers what it means to be human in a world filled with intelligent machines. In the end, he finally finds the crusade he has been looking for: creating new schools for new times. Read, laugh, ponder, then go to your next school board meeting and demand we begin rethinking how we prepare our young, not just for the world of work, bur for the world of community.</p>

Then What? A Funquiry into the Nature of Technology, Human Transformation and Marshall McLuhan

Then What? is funny, wise and powerful. It is a story - everyone's story - about trying to make sense of a digitally overdone world that our kids call normal. And it is a story about how schools must change if they are going to help us take back the future...today. Part sci-fi, part social commentary, and a lot of roller coaster fun, Then What? is rated NT for "non-technical." Join computer savant William Tell as he tries to find a path with a heart among the glitz of the high-tech world. Led by his mentor Credo, and joined by a group of insanely wise helpmates, William discovers what it means to be human in a world filled by intelligent machines and starts a crusade to create schools that make sense for the Digital Age in which we live.
