DET NSW Learning Devices

Published by Mr S at 8:32 am under DET NSW, Pedagogy, professional development and tagged: ,

 So DET NSW gets another step closer to announcing who wins the final contract for 220,000 wireless learning devices.

The tender cull from 21 to 6 was announced yesterday  and includes Acer, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Asus, Lenovo and ASI.

The wireless list will also be culled from 15 to the winner before installs start in 571 NSW schools in April.

I hope schools are ready. It will be interesting to watch the ready, fire, aim approach.

cl-bulletin-no-2 NSW DET laptop Bulletin Number 2 gives a comprehensive update, I just wish the link on their website was easier to find.

Please FIX YOUR BROKEN WEB1.0 SITE DET NSW and yes I am yelling, because no one is listening.

Queensland DET’s at least looks vaguely web2.0ish with RSS and intuitive navigation.

    Thanks for the update Tony – I’m looking forward to seeing how soon these laptops will be in our students’ hands!

    All year 9 students in the State will have Learning Devices by the end of 2009.
    Check out the DET Laptop Bulletins, number 2 just out, very informative.
