Needless to say, I have my concerns.
- technology becoming disruptive of the traditional understanding of the appropriate relationship between the business enterprise and public education.
I feel it necessary to comment that I am not anti-Microsft in the sense that might be assumed by expressing my concerns here.
And one could argue that disruption of/to a failing system can only be for the good.
I think that there are deeper reasons to believe that this is a from the frying pan, into the fire situation.
