Readings - future curricula

There is much discussion about how the curriculum should be changed to prepare learners for a future that we can hardly describe. I have been concentrating on the Equinox Summit findings (yet to be finally published but I am working my way through their communique). Thank you to John Mikton and the ECIS ICT Committee eNews for a reading list regarding the curriculum for the future:
