Coming soon in the Digital Education ezine

November 20, 2018

Very soon, I will publish the next issue of the newsletter, Digital Education. It’s been too long since the last one, but I haven’t been idle, as I hope the illustration shows. Anyway, here are a few of the things that will be found in the next issue of this esteemed publication:

  • Four prize draws, for a couple of great books. (If that sounds odd, here’s the explanation: two publishers have kindly donated two books each.)

  • How to raise money for ed tech in your school.

  • An in-depth evaluation of some Microsoft devices and software.

  • An opportunity to take part in a survey.

  • Details of some interesting-looking events coming up.

  • Disconnectionism.

  • Plus news, views and reviews, useful links, and possibly the odd witticism.

If any of that sounds interesting, please subscribe here: Digital Education.

There are a few back issues too, in the form of PDFs, if you’d like to see what the newsletter looks like before subscribing: Archive.

Two reviews in one: A Little History of Mathematics

I submitted my review of this book to Teach Secondary magazine, an educational magazine in the UK. The first review below is what the magazine published. The second one is what I actually wrote! In substantive terms there is little difference between the two, but you may find it interesting to see what the editor altered.

The new dark ages.jpg
Are we in, or entering, a post-literate society?

I know that there are people who think that Tik-Tok videos and other (very) short-form content is a kind of literacy that’s on a par with reading, but I have my doubts.
