"The next big thing"? What did you guys consider as the next big thing? I'm really keen to know what leadership considers 'new' when things change so quickly.

Hi Ewan,
I know it is a cumbersome phrase, but we were talking about IWBs and how many schools had invested heavily in the technology (including mine) - and so we were just exploring if a similar technology in the near future could have a similar impact.
My response to the headteacher's question was about two aspects - curriculum change and personal technology. The former I think will be more important than any technology development, although the curriculum should hopefully embrace the online tech developments. The latter, I referred to how children are using more personalised technology that we probably do not make the most of, such as mobile phones etc.
Should be an interesting time to see how these two aspects emerge.
