Top futurist on what the (virtual) classrooms of 2050 will look like

Virtual reality will be the main mode of learning for many subjects, says Tracey Follows , a futurist who has worked with Google, Virgin and Telefonica .

She produced a white paper on the subject in collaboration with online tutoring service GoStudent.
