2017 Retrospective: coming soon in Digital Education

December 29, 2017

Over the last year I've published a lot of issues of my newsletter, Digital Education, and most of those have contained quite a few articles.

As it's the time of year when everyone seems to be producing retrospectives of one sort or another, I thought I'd do so too. Well, you know what they say: if you can't beat 'em....

My retrospective of 2017 comprises one of my favourite articles from each month in 2017. I'll be publishing it later today, for subscribers only. Here's what it will contain:

  • Fake news
  • Who's the expert
  • Educational research
  • Randomisation
  • A how-to tutorial for Excel
  • Conference apps
  • The state of Computing in England
  • The GDPR
  • Algorithms
  • Visual Basic and VBA
  • Tips for when you're interviewed for an ed tech job
  • Digital news report

Some of these have been published before, but I've updated them with further links. If you fancy an interesting read-fest, just subscribe to my newsletter!
