Article: [safetynet] What are your kids learning while you're not looking?

Colleagues

<http://milesberry.net/>Miles Berry and 
<http://www.ictineducation.org>I are 
<http://www.bettshow.com/page.cfm/action=Seminars/SeminarID=64>presenting 
at the BETT show on the Saturday, for the BCS with the above title, 
exploring children's informal learning outside the classroom and what 
implications this might have for teachers and schools. As well as a 
literature review and some case studies, we've also put together a 
quick google-form based survey (see 
<http://edtechuk.net>http://edtechuk.net ) to get some quantitative 
data of our own. One of the things we'll be looking at is the extent 
to which children's internet activities are monitored or filtered at home.

I wonder if there's any chance of some of you pointing a few students 
towards the above address, or passing it on to colleagues who might 
be able to find a spare 10-15 minutes for a class to fill in the blanks.

We'll obviously be sharing our findings at BETT, and probably through 
some follow-up pieces afterwards. Apologies for cross posting elsewhere.

Thanks
Terry
