I’ve come across a Google Docs spreadsheet by way of Tom Barrett, one of the more prolific education twitterers out there. The aim of the document is to collect data on what services are blocked or unblocked by all the LAs in England and Wales.
This is important! As teachers excited by technology many of us are being prevented from innovating because our LAs are blocking everything we come across. I’m fascinated by this document. Already I can see that Norfolk LA is stricter than all the others completed so far, whereas Notts is the least restrictive.
Please, if you are a teacher in England or Wales, could you have a look and contribute. All you need is a Google Docs account. Here’s the link: http://bit.ly/bEwfsb. This kind of information is gold-dust and would make an ideal discussion for NAACE, provided we can complete it of course…
…so please help!
