That was May Part 1
May followed April and the excitement of my brother and hiw wife Janet visiting from Germany. My brother the plasma physicist, his life work and passion. April also gave us Mum and Dads 50th anniversary, now there is an occasion with heart where the dearest relatives assembled to celebrate and the original bridesmaids rock n' rolled. Mum and Dad were the king and queen of the day looking gratifyingly young and fit, as Mum said, when they had their wedding most of the guests were teenagers and children, their brothers and sisters.
Last week was notable because I was offered a new job. The work is well withing my capabilities but the new position will liberate me to manage and produce in a way that is most suited to my strengths.Is it because my birthday was coming up that this gift has been bestowed on me. I will unwrap this gift and hold its arrival as precious.
I have drafted this as a much longer blog post, but it is late so I will create another entry tomorrow! If you aren't a blogger yet all I can say is treat yourself to this opportunity to reflect and connect and start your own blog!

Well, I missed out on funding to use two way distributed video from teachers and learners on wikis, but when you lose one sometimes you win something else, and this time there are two or three positive spin-offs.
The first one is that one way or another the unfunded project will happen anyway,by other means. Secondly I have a RFID Learning Table and an N95 to experiment with, it has just occurred to me I can explore the use of these separately and interacting togerher.
My plan for the N95 is to use it as a creation, display and storage unit for course material generated by teachers and learners. I am not thinking about transmitting this material over the network, rather just uploading and downloading from the internet, or using MMC cards. This week I will test whether an Adobe Presenter file will run on the N95.
In researching another funding source, which I decided not to submit for, I have made some contacts for a mediascape type gps project with a group of indigenous learners, I would love tto do this project.
From talking to people who blog I have gained some insights about how blogs are being used – by mothers groups, journalists, marriage celebrants, party plan businesses, religious orders and even scrapbookers! There are different subtleties in the communication requirements for each of these groups and I enjoy seeing how Web 2.0 tools are configured to meet each of their needs.
