ICT in Education: Update on summit feedback
Last month over 110 people attended an ICT Summit in Stirling Management Centre and upto 900 people participated online discussing the future of ICT in Education, including the evolution towards the new Glow solutions.
Following that summit jointly hosted by ourselves and Education Scotland, we would like to share with you the key recurring feedback points received and/or identified by all involved.
With these in mind, we have moved to the next phase and in the next couple of weeks we will be outlining details of ICT in Education programme, including the key stages we will go through towards realising our 5 ICT in Education objectives: Culture Change; Improve Confidence; Promote new behaviours; Deepen parental engagement; and Strengthen the position on hardware and associated infrastructure.
Throughout the course of the programme you can expect updates via a dedicated section on Engage, including opportunities for continuous dialogue. We will also be identifying key junctures in the process where we will seek to respond to any questions you may have about the programme.
Thanks again to all those who have contributed so far, we look forward to continuing working with you to realise our ambition.
Jamie MacDougall, on behalf of the
ICT in Education Programme Team.

I trust that the team has been taking note of all the viewpoints which have been exercised through the #EduScotICT hash tag and not restricting their analysis to the contents of the wiki.
Interesed to see these tweets from ADES2011
@HofSEducation: “We will not abandon #Glow, you can expect continuity” #EduScotICT #ades2011

Interesting comments from @feorlean re: Glow #ades2011 #EDUScotICT
Continuity and improvement through evolution are key to mazimizing benefit and developing Glow to become a more pervasive and effective platform to support learners and educators throughout Scotland.
Set against the abandonment of the Glow Re-Procurement, Scotland is at a critical decision point with considerable responsibility on the shoulders of key decision makers.
