Abstract | Michael Gove has correctly lambasted the current curriculum for information and communication technology (ICT): his proposed solution is as wrong as the current curriculum, as findings from the Penceil Research Project on how to engage non-users of ICTs demonstrate. Learning how to use a word processor and a spreadsheet is a useful low-level enabling skill but it has little to do with learning to engage creatively with information and communication technologies. Britain needs a discourse of engagement with ICTs to accomplish tasks which are important and meaningful to learners, not the mandating of one menu of irrelevant skills in place of a redundant set.
