Some things of interest noticed in the last week of May, 2008.

  • Nature podcast reports on Platypus genome sequence paper (Frank Grutzner from the University of Adelaide was involved in this important work)
  • eBird – an example of ‘Citizen Science’ harnessing the web and general public
  • Michael Coghlan talks about all things new media to a TAFE group in Dubbo

Roughly ten minutes of snippets from podcasts I have heard recently that might be relevant to Higher Education. My aim is to stimulate discussion around the impact of the read/write web on research and teaching & learning.
