Don't confuse, especially on education matters, the UK with Scotland! ;-) The network is already established and all the technology is in place for Glow along with large-scale trials. The roll-out of the full system will be complete by next summer.<BR/><BR/>Learning and Teaching Scotland are the group responsible for this and their website is pretty extensive, as is the resource that has been available for years now called SCRAN which provides online access to the contents of all the museums and galleries across the countries. I use it as a home user and it is very impressive. <BR/><BR/>The interesting issue is whether Learning & Teaching Scotland itself will survive the forthcoming removal of Quangos that the new government is embarking on, thought it probably will, or at least the technology aspect of it.Iainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11026898443677804397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-601486001755818021.post-16627477047946754912007-08-04T20:10:00.000+01:002007-08-04T20:10:00.000+01:00But the UK also has some 'history' with big-vision...But the UK also has some 'history' with big-vision public IT projects :-) Is this one likely to be better?<BR/><BR/>I guess in Scotland's defence, the Scottish Executive has a quite reasonable portal publishing public info.<BR/>http://www.scottishexecutive.gov.uk/andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17064600321175991589noreply@blogger.com
