00_NOP writes "Everybody (or almost everybody) in England agrees that computing teaching to kids in high school is broken. In response the government promised a radical overhaul and a new curriculum. But then last week it was discovered the government had scrapped the bit of the education department that would develop any such curriculum. Not to be deterred, John Naughton, the Cambridge University academic who wrote the Short History of the Future, has now published his own 'radical' manifesto on how computing should be taught."http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=A+'Radical+Manifesto'+For+Computer+Tea ching+In+English+Schools%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F HIP8dY)http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstor y%2F12%2F03%2F31%2F2213215%2Fa-radical-manifesto-for-computer-teaching-in-english-schools%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfac ebook)http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://news.slashdot.org/story/12/03/31/2213215/a-radical-manifesto-for-computer-teaching-in-english-schools?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
