Thanks Mike and Margaret for a wonderful summary of the history of IWB's
introduction to education in England.
I think we can now reflect on this experience,move the discussion on and
ask ourselves "What can we learn from this and what would we do differently
if another "Charles Clarke moment" should ever arise?

" While this study has looked closely at the impact of ICT on how pupils
learn and how this might be enhanced....it has not addressed the impact of
what they learn or where learning takes place and whether the schools of the
future will be the physical entities we have today" The Impact of ICT in
schools-a landscape review-Becta 2007
"Using technology to improve education is not rocket science...it is
much,much harder than that" Diana Laurillard, Opening Up Education 2009
"An intensified activity in this area will lead educational institutions
to realize that they are embedded in a globalised and constantly evolving
knowledge society, and that, as a consequence, they will have to redefine
their role within society and within the learning process."
