Great Induction everyone

Thanks to all those who were able to make it to campus today and for those who I have been able to talk to over the phone. We are getting there... I am at a conference tomorrow but will pick up issues to complete on my return. It looks like a conscientious group! I will get the blogs up thursday if I can.

I will try to add to this blog as well - I am home working on Friday so if anyone else needs an induction that is a good time...

Hurray!

I'm back

I am back doing BAPP (Arts) stuff! I am working on the Moodle and the new handbooks - the new Moodle site is up but I need to populate it! Watch this space...

I have had some great conversations this summer - in my head and with people like Mary Karpel - talking about internships and learning from experience - great.

I have been trying to write but spent holiday time on the handbooks and Moodle - so I need to catch up. I have been trying to turn my thesis into an article - 90K to 7K - mmmm. needs some more work.

I am off to a conference in North Carolina later this week

So much to do - hope everyone is well.
