9th attempt – christmas seal This is the last update for 2011. At the start of December I attended Online Educa in Berlin and chaired a session on Lecture Capture with three really interesting presentations from Ilkka Kukkonen, Dan Roberts and Amanda Hardy. While I am still working on completing my CMALT portfolio, I have signed up for Scott Klemmer’s Human-Computer Interaction course which starts online in January and I am looking forward to participating in the…
Looking forward to attending Online Educa in Berlin towards the end of this month. Also completing my CMALT portfolio and getting ready for Christmas. On my personal blog I’ve recently posted pictures of a new chocolate graveyard made for Halloween as well as some architectural LEGO models of schools made by school children which I saw on a recent visit to London.The archive of the cemteryscapes blog is now fully up and running. And the scarves have…
For the past two years I have edited and compiled the cemteryscapes blog together with many contributors who kindly sent us their pictures, links and articles. The blog started as a community project during the last year of my PhD and then gained a modest, but loyal community of readers across the world. We featured cemeteryscapes from many countries and material culture from Africa, the United States, Skandinavia, Southern Europe and the UK – everything…
Icognito, Paris I started the month in France and this month’s picture is a snapshot from the trip – a very small gallery which really makes the most of the space it occupies. I have also had the pleasure to attend FOTE11 last week (see the FOTE11 blog for more info) and came away with a lot of interesting things to think about. I’ll also be at the AoC/ALT conference, ‘ Management Strategies to Improve the…

Heritage tomato This monthly update comes late as I have been rather busy during the first half of this month. However, on my personal blog you can have a look at some cookie-experiments which I have been undertaking. I have also included a picture a heritage tomato, which is the most exciting thing currently growing in my garden. I have also had the great pleasure of seeing Nigel Kennedy playing at the Proms at the…
I’m afraid that you can now follow me on Twitter @MarenDeepwell, although my tweeting is limited to work-related matters. There’s summery news on my blog, mostly vegetable related… I’ve also had the pleasure of moderating a very interesting webinar on digital learning environments and spending a lot of time preparing for ALT-C 2011.
