Step Change? Out of Step!

clip_image002 How short sighted of this Educational Working Party to think they are coming up with a new idea to have students access courses from places other than their own schools! Short sighted too of TVNZ to discuss this with two Auckland Principals and one academic. Don’t they know that beyond the Bombay Hills, if they would bother to look, for the last seven years students from around the country have had increased choices and been able to personalise their own learning pathways through the Virtual Learning Network.

The full report of Step Change can be found here as well as ACTs minority report Free to Learn (which is a lot scarier).

TVNZ news reports here, here & here.
