[school-discuss] seeking ideas for policy recommendation on ICT-education

["j. Tim Denny" <johndenny@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Friends

I Âwas asked to write a small paper on the following topic (copied verbatim)

A list of policy recommendations and an action plan for role of ICT in the education of disadvantaged groups,

Basically what they are asking is for clear areas in which policy should focus on being more proactive inÂassistingÂdisadvantagedÂgroups in the education sector in Vietnam, yet it can apply anywhere. Â

I like to break ICT-educationÂprojects into these main areas...

• content Â-teaching learning materials
• capacity building Â- training
• infrastructure - hardware/software
• connectivity - Âintranet, internet, etc..
• maintenance - how to keep all that stuff working
• community inclusion/ppp - engaging beyond the school
• policy - ÂI am hesitant to add this section... but surely rules/regulations at the lower levels are extremely important

If Âyou might have some ideas or Âparticular people/groups to direct me to then I will greatly appreciate your help.

Cheers

Tim
