I went to the BETT show a couple of weeks ago. I don't know what BETT exactly stands for. British Education Technology something or other. It's the definitive educational technology show in the UK and probably Europe. It's huge. It took up almost all of the Olympia conference center. Jenny and I got there by around 10:30 and spent five and a half solid hours wandering the aisles. That wasn't enough time to cover all of it. We didn't even take in any of the seminars.
I found it pretty inspiring. There's a great match between ICT and Education. It's been a growing interest of mine for a couple of years now. There's so much potential but at the same time it's a very difficult task to get it right. It can also be a very expensive exercise.
I've even been mulling over doing a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) and qualifying as an Secondary School ICT Teacher. It could be my second career.
