    Flexible E-Content
    (World Conference on Educational Media and Technology, 2005-06-27) Doerksen, Trevor ; Cheetham, Anastasia ; Harrison, Laurie ; Huang, King Chung
    E-Content and learning objects promise reuse, accessibility, interoperability, scalability, and affordability. Issues such as intellectual property, decontextualization, technological barriers, standards and specifications not supporting reuse, and quality have prevented the realization of these principles. This paper argues that Flexible E-Content whereby intellectual property rights is articulated, and technical barriers removed through the use of tools, standards and specifications that support repurposing, can lead to reuse. Analyzing the results of several case studies the technical and intellectual property conditions for reuse are articulated and examples from industry are provided.

    The schools we need: a new blueprint for Ontario
    (Atkinson Foundation, 2003-04) Leithwood, Kenneth ; Fullan, Michael ; Watson, Nancy
    What was the purpose of Schools We Need? Following the most tumultuous decade in Ontario educational history, and seven years after the release of the report of the Royal Commission on Learning, it seemed time to examine where Ontario education is now and where the province should be headed in the future. The Schools We Need provided an audit of current education policy in Ontario with suggestions on how to improve our schools.We argued in that report that the future for public schools in Ontario is at risk – student achievement has stalled, teachers and principals are demoralized, and the funding formula is not working.
