Wouldn't it be great if everyone was honest - we wouldn't need any keys! Wouldn't it be great if we could trust everyone - we wouldn't need to produce evidence and our environment would be in a far better state than it is now (at least IT evidence is a little kinder on the environment). So many really important issues are coming up and this blog is a great way to debate these ethical (and environmental) concerns. I would be up for a 'face to face' debate with a bottle of something. Anyone else interested? When I first started to use the technology I was most fascinated by the ways in which it could promote and enhance learning. It is only now that I am giving time to deeply consider the implications of what happens to 'evidence' once it leaves the learners' hands. Which is surprising really as I have always had concerns about how much is recorded and written about the people I have cared for in previous jobs. I think I was so totally absorbed in getting my brain around learning how to use the equipment.
Giving learners the opportunity to use technology to enhance their personal journals/work diaries has been nothing but a joy. I am eager for more debate on what happens next? 'Dare we trust the tutors?' could be a great starting point for a lively debate.
