Abstract

In 1983 Kenneth Baker, then Minister for Educational Technology wrote: Information Technology is daily giving birth to new concepts, new products and new ideas, and radically transforming not only our industries and businesses but every aspect of our lives ...There is great potential for significant improvement in our lives as a result of the new technologies, but our ability to benefit from technological advance will depend entirely on the speed with which we adapt to it. ( Baker, 1983 )
