Good analysis, with a valuable diagram showing that most schools purchase smallish systems that 'nobody got fired for buying' - a reflection of a relatively slow uptake, small technology budgets and limited time for implementation (and consequent dependence on providers to support technological needs). Tasmania is cited as the exception that proves this rule - I wish I had more details on that. More...

Interoperability: Why does it matter?

Interoperability: Why does it matter?
"Why can't we do it?" asks Evan Arthur to kick off this astonishing workshop on technical standards for learning education and training held last week in Melbourne. "Because it's just too damn hard."

Change Your Mind?

Change Your Mind?
Dave Pollard looks at the implications of a site called Change This. The idea of Change This is to produce glossy PDF 'manifestos' which are supposed to be passed, meme-link, but without comment (how can you comment on a PDF?), through the web.
