Doh! Wrong blog!

Last three posts were actually intended for my third year Economics students.

This is what happens when you're editing multiple blogs in a dashboard in a hurry.

I'll leave them up but reminder to self to be more careful.

Luckily I spotted error before the class in 30 minutes...

Virtual Revolution: 3D Explorer URL

Virtual Revolution: 3D Explorer URL

Just in case you have problems finding it here is a direct link to the 3D Explorer multimedia.

You can effectively watch full episodes or jump between Chapter points and resources.

We do not have the class time to watch all four hours of the series in class but a DVD is available from library or you can watch it on-line as a good quality video stream. Over the course of the module I will highlight some key sections that I think you really should watch; but I have to say the whole thing is really very good.

Bring Me Back To Life

My work-ish blog has been neglected for some time. Time I brought it back to life (as Evanescence might say). Until a few minutes ago when I embedded a SlideShare presentation on OER into it. Not that I haven't been busy doing stuff but have been concentrating on Twitter (for sheer convenience) as well as updating other blogs.
