USED to Name New Ed-Tech Chief
According to an eSchool News report, the U.S. Department of Education
has named Tim Magner the new Director of the Office of Educational Technology. Magner
is former deputy director of ED's Office of Educational Technology (OET) and
previously served as executive director of K-12 education at Microsoft Corp. His
appointment comes seven months after the departure of Susan Patrick, and at a
pivotal time for educational technology. The president's proposed budget
seeks to cut the main source of technology funding for schools, the Enhancing
Education Through Technology (EETT) block grant, for the second year in a row.
