Should the web be filtered in schools? If yes then where is the line? David Gilmour (East Lothian) First, all social s/w sites are not the same. Distinguish blogs/wikis from Bebo etc as a first step. Next establish that Web2 is now mainstream. Queen, GB have Youtube sites, not just happy slappers. Have a paper I did on this... Ben Plouviez (Scottish Government, personal capacity) Some very random thoughts: this is an area where I think we should make waves, and I'd like to understand more about how filtering works (or doesn't) in local authorities and schools.

This site provides an overview of the DIAL-e framework developed by Kevin Burden and Simon Atkinson. It includes a great introductory video on the project. "The framework was developed as part of a UK project, sponsored through the Joint Information Services Committee (JISC), to encourage academics and other educators to adopt digital artefacts (in this case video) as part of their teaching, learning and research strategies. Simon and Kevin have three papers about this at the Ascilite conference. I really like this framework and think it has great potential. I think it is a good example of a 'design schema' i.e. a framework to enable teachers and designers to think differently about learning and teaching.
