“Levels of access to and use of technology are high among young learners – especially out of school. However, their experience of technology in formal education generally differs from that at home and there are increasing indications that learners’ expectations of technology, and, as a result, of learning, are not being met.”

(BECTA 2008)

Should we not actually be empowering learners by giving them ownership of their learning using a collection of distributed tools that promote creativity and innovation?

How can we achieve this in post-16 education?

Can I pose a question?
