Subject: Re: eForesee malta-ict: Scenarios for Malta in ICT
Dear Jennifer,
This is one scenario I would like to see:
Secondary and post-secondary schools in Malta developed as centres of excellence in (a combination of) ICT and business studies (the two subjects should be seen as complementary) where emphasis is also placed on Thinking Skills, Innovation and Leadership. The basic objective would be to have trained and skilled personnel in BOTH ICT and Business Studies. A sub-objective could be to attract students from other countries to these schools as a result of which more synergy, contacts and healthy competition could be generated.

Dear Colleagues, We would like to initiate an on-line discussion on alternative futures for Malta in ICT. We would like you to send us up to ten different scenario themes for Malta in ICT. These can be scenario themes focused on:
- specific niche areas (e.g. Malta as an e-learning hub)
- or ICT-enabled initiatives (e.g. on-line gambling)
- or telecomms-related initiatives
- or any other ideas in general !!
Ideally, this exercise should not involve too much time - maximum 30 minutes - just jot down what comes immediately to mind. So send us your feedback if possible by Thursday 22 August. Looking forward to hearing from you, Jennifer
