The Danish government says if the internet is so much a part of daily life, it should be included in the classroom and in examinations.
Sanne Yde Schmidt, who heads the project at Greve, says: "If we're going to be a modern school and teach them things that are relevant for them in modern life, we have to teach them how to use the internet."
Students are no longer required to regurgitate facts and figures. Instead the emphasis is on their ability to sift through and analyse information.
Some high schools in Denmark are beginning to allow students access to the internet during exams. Exciting stuff, and fantastic to see countries looking into more open forms of assessment. I will be interested to see how quickly other nations follow Denmark's lead in this regard. Tools like Diigo would be a fantastic method of preparation for student's sitting these exams.
