Hi Simon, Thanks for the observations. Good to get some feedback as often we work in isolation and its good to get a fuller picture.
It seems that infographics have become more prevalent on the web in very recent times, so I am trying to include them as I come across them.It is making a mess of my organisation on the page though :( Will have to rethink the whole page to see if I can improve this. Which is also an issue when iFraming content. Have made of few changes (based on your comments) BTW as a wiki if you spot anything that needs to be changed, I would really appreciate you making the changes - it can only improve the content. My students are only just coming around to the concept that its all right for them to change my teaching notes! (Does provide me with some interesting times when delivering face to face and the content has changed!!). I see you are Australian based, am looking at creating a separate part for different countries (in my case New Zealand). . Cheers Michael.

You might want to include the OER.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet > Not much use talking about something's history until one has some idea > of what something is. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
