The U.S. Department of Education has released its latest National Education Technology Plan (NETP). The report makes seven recommendations:
CRLF- Strengthen ed-tech leadership at the state and local levels
CRLF- Consider innovative budgeting
CRLF- Improve teacher training
CRLF- Support eLearning and virtual schooling initiatives
CRLF- Encourage broadband access
CRLF- Move toward digital content; and
CRLF- Integrate data systems.
CRLFCRLFMark Oehlert's response: "Hey look! DOE found out about the Web!" CRLFJames Richardson reviews the plan and gives it a thumbs down: "you won’t find much to support that in the new tech plan, which, for all intents and purposes, seems pretty much rooted in sustaining the NCLB model for preparing a country of factory workers."
