What will be the next best thing after computers
What is the next best thing
Cloning
The possibility of human cloning, raised when Scottish scientists at Roslin Institute created the much-celebrated sheep "Dolly" (Nature 385, 810-13, 1997), aroused worldwide interest and concern because of its scientific and ethical implications.
Remember Dolly the sheep cloned in 1997?

What one can do with technology puzzles me. But cloning phenomenon is just something else.

Hi Mabusi, i am also disgusted by the news about Caster's gender. How can we South Africans just succumb to pressures from outsiders. Is it really not enough to just check? Is an embarassment, dehumanising and invasion of the poor girl's privacy not enough to still have to be subjected to the so called "Gender Testing" What is the IAAF talking about saying it ordered the tests to make sure Caster didnt have "a potential medical condition" that would give her an unfair advantage over her competitors? What is the implication? Caster is just a baby, still at the baby steps of her carrier, i hope she survive all these hullabaloo. Im just wondering what will be next after the "GENDER TESTING"

The definition of ICT in Education goes far beyond that of a traditional computer connected to a network – it encompasses a whole realm of new technologies, including human language technologies, “smart” devices, wireless and handheld devices, merging media devices and high-performance computing concepts and facilities. It focuses specifically on the application of these technologies in an educational context and environment, and should thus be seen as a tool or platform to support education, not an end in itself.
