School Links

A requirement should be introduced that (B), C, D and doctoral studies include an internet 'school-link' and a web-based development strategy for school curricula.

The idea is for the researcher to learn to 'generalise from her particular knowledge' and integrate her research (and knowledge of its historical context) with (a) the broader and more generalist-oriented school curriculum and (b) the wider worldview that 'students' are now acquiring, outside of schooling, from 'the university of life', family history (eg. immigrants), internet, television, etc.

'Maps, Mapping and Modelling' written in July 1989 suggests the possibility of educational products that could provide a new generation of educational tools ideally suited for 'increased pass-through rates' in a learning society.
