How about “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater”. How ICT based education still requires a disciplined approach to learning from students and teachers, with a particular emphasise on on reading the books in the library!But then I’m just a GOF!I do some grumbling posts that may be vaguely related. e.g. http://alecthegeek.wordpress.com/2006/11/29/so-what-is-a-good-university-education/:-)
