http://edtalks.org/video/school-leadership-21st-century
What is your mental model for what school should look like?
Can you clearly articulate why elearning is part of this model?
Research

Key advantages of elearning stated include:
•Content can be more efficiently personalised for individuals
and reviewed.
•Students can be supported to collaborate, take control of
their learning and connect with global audiences.
•One-to-one device use seems to correlate with an increase in
collaboration and inquiry amongst students.
•The teaching paradigm shifts from teacher-centric to a more co-
operative mode, focusing increasingly in individuals.
•eLearning is intrinsically engaging, and it can reach those
previously disengaged.
•It makes student participation visible for prompt follow-up.

The planning process is vitally important, the plan that results from this process is only one of the outcomes.

An effective planning process not only results in a useful plan; it also has positive effects on the school community.

A successful plan includes a defined set of educational outcomes and a proposed pathway to try to get there.

A successful plan is not a shopping list or a budget, it involves much more than buying things.

The attitude of the school community to ICT and the change that can result from the planning process can be more important than an understanding of the ICT itself.

Good plans stress application across the whole curriculum.
