Some Background Reading

Below please find a short list of some useful documents and links which hopefully may help to inform our work over the coming months - The list has an educational focus (as that my main job) rather than a community development one. I particularly like the Kenneth Robinson contribution which is very engaging.



  1. An excellent Slide show produced by Suzie Vesper outlining the essential elements of an effective ICT Planning Process.
  2. A presentation by Kennenth Robinson on Changing Education Paradigms
