Abstract: The purpose of the report is to inform Australian campus leaders and decision-makers about important developments in technologies supporting teaching, learning, and creative inquiry in tertiary education across the continent. It was produced to explore important developments in technology and forecast their potential impact expressly in an Australian context. In the effort that took place from January through March 2015, a carefully selected panel of experts was asked to consider hundreds of relevant articles, news, blog posts, research, and project examples as part of the preparation that ultimately pinpointed the most notable technology topics, trends, and challenges for Australian tertiary education over the next five years. The expert panel identified the top ten key trends, the top ten significant challenges, and twelve important developments in educational technology. Each of the twelve developments in educational technology are profiled, on a single page that describes and defines the technology, and are ranked as very important for Australian tertiary education over the next year, two to three years, and four to five years. Every page opens with a carefully crafted definition of the highlighted technology, outlines its educational relevance, points to several real-life examples of its current use, and ends with a short list of additional readings for those who wish to learn more. Preceding those discussions are sections that detail the expert panel's top ranked trends and challenges, and illuminate why they are seen as highly influential factors in the adoption of technology in Australian universities over the next five years. The three key sections of this report constitute a reference and straightforward technology-planning guide for educators, campus leaders, administrators, policy-makers, and technologists.
