This would seem the perfect opportunity for some joined-up thinking and using the Education Manual as a core text. However, I think that it not being an &#8220;official&#8221; Foundation publication may prove it&#8217;s undoing. What makes this lack of co-ordination worse is that Clive Beale, one of the minds behind the Manual, was recently appointed as the Foundation&#8217;s new Director of Educational Development.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure there is a good reason why the Manual hasn&#8217;t been mentioned, but it seems like a lost opportunity to me.<\/p>\n<p>I hope, however, that OCR sees fit to release the materials it produces to the wider community rather than just for the lucky 15,000 recipients of Google&#8217;s grant Pis. There will be numerous groups and individuals who will benefit from such a move and it would likely be folly not to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Edited from this article\u00a0on the OCR website.
