The U.K. government has launched a wide-ranging consultation with respect to e-learning strategy. Included with the consultation is a long (65 page) discussion paper (PDF or Word). Areas covered include assessment, accessibility, collaboration and digital rights. There is some good stuff here, including broadband for all schools and "funding models to ensure universal personal access to e-learning for all learners and teachers." There are some odd bits - why would the report urge the exploration of "generic" software (as opposed to Open Source)? The consultation runs until the end of January, 2004.
