1) I believe that technology itself could cause a reform but it is better to be used as an instrument to encourage reform. In this way technology becomes more powerful and more evident due to the benefits that technology carries with it. Technology can cause a reform if it is used in combination with other aspects, like pedagogical aspects, policies etc.
2) Producers and developers of technologies impose pressures on universities decisions because universities do not want to be left behind and with implementing new poducts and new technological advances, the producers look for profitable universities able to implement this kind of new technologies and services. The same occurs with universities. Universities look for the marketing and profit that they can gain but not in favour of the students most of the times.
Looking back in weeks 13&14 studies shown that mobile computing is on the rise and cloud-based applications and resources are catching on among undergraduates. Many student technology adoption patterns are surprisingly stable even when technologies themselves change dramatically, students continue to want a moderate level of technology in their courses. There is no stereotypical student when it comes to technology. The same occurs with Cuban from what I have seen, as there were computers in their classrooms but neither student nor teachers used them actually as they should.
