One dream that I have that would have real marketing potential is a
project where children in a school in the UK link up with a school in
Pakistan, say, or Kenya, to write an article or groups of articles in
English/Swahili/Urdu, whatever.
Or you could get children in the East End to talk to each other?

Last open (free) IT basic skills training session I went to around
