[LINK] Uniting people

[stephen at melbpc.org.au]

Although the following project relates to an academic setting, the
need for such systems will obviously soon, if not already, be felt
in a wide variety of settings in order to 'unite' various folk. So
I am wondering what Linkers might envisage as 'ideal' approachs to
this need, given current technology and presuming say an NBN and a
reasonably generous budget for any necessary technology?


Project Officer/Manager (snip)

"The School of Education, Macquarie University has an opening for a 
Project Officer/Manager on an exciting Australian Learning and Teaching
Council project investigating how synchronous technologies (desktop video
conferencing, web-conferencing, virtual worlds) can be most effectively
utilised to unite remote and face-to-face university students. The
successful applicant for this academic position will work with a national
team of academics to identify, characterise, and evaluate technology
enhanced ways of bringing together on-campus and geographically dispersed
students, as well as help coordinate a community of practitioners from
across Australia."
