What’s the right tense to write about Knowledge Ontario?
Future simple? Past imperfect? Present progressive? Conditional?
Certainly with the active voice because there’s nothing
passive about the organization so many are passionate
about.
You’re reading this in winter 2011 but the writing about KO’s
future isn’t yet on the wall in fall 2010. Knowledge Ontario has
just launched its eResources Portal that streamlines four of
its services – with no passwords or sign-in needed. It uses the
new technology of Geo-IP authentication to recognize internet
addresses in Ontario and give them an automatic pass into the
resources. School boards in particular are embracing this portal
as an easy entry for their students to safe, age-appropriate resources
full of the information and Canadian content they need
for their assignments. The e-resource vendors under license
(Career Cruising, CEDROM-SNi, EBSCO, Gale-Cengage, and
Rosen) were game to create full access through the portal and
have KO’s thanks. Try it at eresources.knowledgeontario.ca.
