Selected Activities
Publications
The June 2007 of the Taylor and Francis Journal Technology, Pedagogy and Education (Volume 16, Issue 2) will be a special edition devoted to the role of new technologies across the ESRC Teaching and Learning Research Programme and the Applied Education Research Scheme. Edited by Patrick Carmichael of CARET, it will contain three substantial and peer-reviewed articles about the JISC VRE evaluation and other applications of Sakai along with articles on digital repositories, technology-enhanced research and other topics.
A 'Gateway Book' in the Routledge-TLRP Series 'Improving Teaching and Learning' is also in preparation for publication later in 2007.
