‘Curriculum Now’ was an online community tool commissioned by QCA and developed by Core Education UK.
The aim was to encourage dialogue within mutually supportive groups at the cutting edge of curriculum improvement - a place to share achievements and challenges with others. In addition to making a difference in schools, this national programme offered the potential for practitioners to influence curriculum policy and practice across the system - an online network with direct access to its members allowing a viral exchange of ideas, resources and knowledge both explicit and tacit.
Plone was chosen by Core Education UK as a cost effective solution to trial the online community model in the curriculum co-development context. It was also envisaged that the membership would be encouraged to explore Plone and other Web 2.0 technologies in support of ‘Curriculum Now’ objectives and their own professional activities.
There were three communities, All Co-Developers, Creative Partnerships and Consultants.
