This article is the first of a planned series of “topics for debate” that will be a regular column within the pages of Educational Technology. The objective is to focus on issues within the general field covered by the magazine that either are highly topical and already being hotly debated, or else are largely being ignored but maybe should be generating debate. My role, and that of my occasional collaborators (I have one today), will be to “stir it up”, by addressing the issue in as provocative a manner as is deemed “politically correct” (by the magazine’s editors). Your role, as reader, will be to respond to the challenge, adding your insights and comments to the debate.
