Never mind the technology, where's the learning?



In 1992, I was involved in an exciting ICT and learning conference with this title. I'm assuming that Steve Heppell, who was one of the main organisers for the conference, came up with this phrase to express the theme of the conference. Although a great deal has happened in education since, we've still got a long way to go to make this question irrelevant.

How refreshing, trusting students not to cheat

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:34:00 +0000

You might have picked up on yesterday’s Radio 4 Today programme a short piece on how the Danish government are running a pilot in which students taking final year exams in secondary schools will not only be allowed to use laptops, but have full access to the internet. There is only one simple rule, you [...]

Social learning is there actually a choice?

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 12:38:10 +0000

In his latest post, Ewan takes the cudgel to Local Authorities that have banned social networking citing a call by Carol Rozwell, a Gartner vice president, at their recent symposium for corporates to loosen up on social networks in the workplace. In it he feels embarrassed that most education authorities continue to be “ignorant of [...]

Uruguay provides a laptop for every primary pupil

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 10:31:20 +0000

Uruguay is the first significant country to provide a laptop for every pupil attending a state school. While Niue, led the way back in August 2008, Uruguay is the first country with a significant population to provide such a programme. Part of the One Laptop Per Child scheme, the laptops have cost approximately £159 each [...]

Life Support - most young people know what they are doing

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 11:19:26 +0000

If you have not read the report published by Youthnet and launched at the House of Commons yesterday, it should be a on the top of your catch-up list. Apart from the use of the “Digital Native’ cliché, the research findings by Professor Michael Hulme not only makes an interesting read but debunks many of [...]

Quitting Twitter

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:37:07 +0000

Miley Cyrus, the 16 year old actor who is best known to young people as Hannah Montana caused a bit of a stir last week by quitting Twitter by deleting her account. Her response came in a YouTube rap, in which she says she’d started, “living for the moments” and wanted to start “living for [...]

ICT CPD becomes vital

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 20:02:28 +0000

Vital is the new name for the ICT CPD service to be provided by the Open University and e-Skills UK under a £5.6m contract. Back in August I said they had their work cut out, not because of what they might provide, but because of the competition, free or otherwise that this market presents [...]

The decade where nothing worked

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 10:03:51 +0000

In an episode of “Henry’s Cat” mending his cuckoo clock takes him back in time. On his way back to the end of the 20th century he catalogues strange inventions that took place in the early decades of that century. Watching the second episode of BBC Four’s Electric Dreams last night somewhat reminded me of [...]

You can’t adopt someone else’s vision for ICT

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 11:28:27 +0000

It rather worries me that in Graveyard Guru’s latest post he says, “I’ve copied the following from the Becta site (Leadership and Management > Vision), which I’ll then change to suit our school and the attitudes and beliefs of the staff”, as a seeming solution to the problem that the school doesn’t have a real [...]

Am I destined to carry on upgrading forever?

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 12:01:10 +0000

This was one question Simon Armitage asked himself at one point in last night’s, Upgrade Me, the first in a series programmes in BBC Four’s “Electronic Revolution” season. If you missed it you can catch it on BBC’s iPlayer for the next seven days in the UK, or it is repeated on a number of [...]

The resurgence of the innovator and other lessons from the past

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 09:59:09 +0000

I’ve been picking my way through Richard Millwood’s excellent paper on the history of educational computing in the UK entitled, “A short history offline” which, rather ironically went online a couple of days ago. Richard now looks after the National Archive of Educational Computing, a project started in the days of Ultralab. The archive is [...]
