Transforming the Way We Learn: A Vision for the Future of ICT in Schools

Transforming the Way We Learn: A Vision for the Future of ICT in Schools
Well meaning but bland government report pesented by British Secretary of State for Education and Skills Estelle Morris. Clearly labled as NOT government policy, the report outlines a vision of the use of technology in British schools, including a 'day in the life' of a typical student which looks a lot like traditional schooling but incorporates elements of technology assisted instruction, independent learning (in standard one hour blocks) and access to online resources.

Colleges, Fighting U.S. Trade Proposal, Say It Favors For-Profit Distance Education
