this week we ran our first user workshops in London and Glasgow for members of the higher and further education community. We were tremendously pleased with the interest and feedback we have received from these workshops and hope to continue this dialogue through this blog and our associated wiki. If you would like to contribute to the blog or the wiki please contact us and let us know. You can access the wiki through this link.

We hope to keep you informed of developments in the period between now and the official launch of the Newsfilm Online Archive in January 2008.  The Univerisity of Hull have been commissioned to  produce a set of teaching and learning exemplars to encourage members of the HE/FE community to take up and use these valuable resources.  We are in the process of developing a set of technical tutorials(e.g. screencasts), a set of pedagogical exemplars, and a series of video case studies to illustrate how the resources are being used by practitioners.

Please contact us if you have ideas about how these resources might be used or if you wish to get involved in this project yourself.
