Almost there!

Well Week 13 is upon us and that means we are almost done for the semester. The absolute final phase now is bringing the group publication to completion. I'm keen to see the final results and get the files in my hot little hand so I can upload it to issuu - here's last semester's outcome.

I appreciate also the reflective feedback that's being posted. I was interested to hear about your thoughts in regard to the issue of discussion a number of you make reference to. I hear what you are saying and will take it on board. Keep in mind however that the Discussion Points at the end of the online lectures do allow you the opportunity for some discussion online. We do make this quite explicit in the instructions and documentation for the course.

This week I'm including some links out to resources where we can see the digital magazine making inroads into the traditional publishing market (does that exist anymore?) ...

The first is pdf-mags.com

The second link out is back to the issuu site itself - I wanted to highlight some of the publications here online that attracted my attention.
