Educational Technology Debate - India

About the need for a fundamental rethink
organised by InfoDev (World Bank) and UNESCO.

From:
InfoDev April 2010

'Most investment in technology in schools is wasted.' Discuss.

On 21 April, 2010 Infodev launched its Survey of Information and Communication Technology for Education in India & South Asia. The launch in Delhi (India) was marked with a Oxford Union style debate on the motion: 'Most investment in technology in schools is wasted.'

The goal of the contributors will be to persuade the audience to reach one of two conclusions:
1. Most current investment is being wasted and needs a fundamental rethink (FOR the motion)
2. Existing schemes are already bearing fruit and need only ongoing support (AGAINST the motion).
