I Like More Beer at My Parties!

So, today it's been suggested that we form a Working Party to work out how to implement this 1-device-per-student program.

The thought has been that we target Year 10 as a starting point for this program. If we figure that we've got 6 grades (7-12) then the computers we buy will be best run as two 3 year cycles (they can hardly last 6 years), the second will start in Year 10.  This means getting the students in Year 11 and 12 with machines in their hands sooner, there's a difinite need there.

So, it looks like our Working Party will be small.  Featuring myself, our e-Learning Coordinator, a member of the Board, and our English Faculty Head (a keen technology user, and teacher of year 10's).  That's fine by me, a smaller group should be much more nimble and decisive.

UPDATE - Our Working Party is now 5, we welcome our Librarian onboard.  This will be handy when we come to looking at e-texts.
