Geoff Day :: Blog :: Do we know where we are going?

Found an interesting way of involving anyone and everyone in forging the future of education. Just thought - funny that the word forging has two almost opposite meanings? Smile

Take a poke around HERE and see how the thoughts are going.

Some interesting statements about ICT - here is an excerpt from Findings > Survey:

  • All the groups felt the least important areas for further investigation were: How might technologies help the education system respond to significant society changing events, eg pandemics, climate change, cyberterrorism, economic failure? How might the balance between state and commercial delivery of education change in the context of technological development?
  • Over half of all adults from all backgrounds felt that the role of technology was to make learning fun and motivate students.
I couldn't resist adding a comment about McLuhan that might get shown later!
