Graham Attwell reports that the English education minister has called for an open source curriculum. "Gove said three main things that technology can do for learning:
- Disseminate knowledge incredibly widely.
- Change the way teachers teach, with adaptive software personalising learning.
- Allow teachers to assess pupils in more complex and sophisticated ways."
All of which are true. In addition, "A website – schooltech.org.uk – has been launched to discuss the new proposals."
