I agree with Malcolm. While new technologies have enabled some change, it has yet to have any major impact on the day to day learning that goes on in our schools. The web can enable very student centred learning and has the potential to transform the way schools work. This is already beginning to happen with initiatives like the virtual learning network.
We have a major hurdle to overcome in existing schools structures which don't easily allow for this type of learning. Traditional assessment systems are also holding us back. Getting change in this area will be difficult with policy makers ready to pander to populist views on education in the parent community.
I do feel that we are now on the cusp of major change though and the web will be the major driver. Schools (governments and parents) will be forced to change or risk becoming irrelevant.
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
