It's about damn time.
Why is the master word in quotes?
If only I had that when I was at school.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;43641351]Why is the master word in quotes?[/QUOTE] Well nobody wants to be labelling people as masters without knowing anywhere near enough about the subject, but they have achieved a certain 'mastery' of their field, so people have probably referred to them as masters, hence the quotes. Or it's just the inherent neutrality that shows up in more reputable news sources.

"Computer 'experts' to train teachers" seems better.
