In a farcical move, the former head of OFSTED has proposed that school children should be taught "modern media and web-based skills". This would mean school kids being taught how to use MySpace, Facebook, Blogger, Twitter, etc...
This is a bit too far. Children don't need to be taught all of this in school. Most are intelligent enough to figure it out for themselves if they want to try it. School should teach proper academic subjects; not how to use the web.
