[English] Imaginative Landscapes Online Context File / Blog and Encountering Conflict

Tue Feb 26 15:49:45 EST 2008

That's fantastic Phadrah. What a lot of beautiful
images. It makes me wish we were doing that context. 
We are doing Enxcountering Conflict and as everyone
knows there is an Encountering Conflict Network
Meeting coming up on Thirsday 13th March 4.30 to 6.30
at VATE. I also invite anyone teaching Encountering
Conflict to join the Ning that I have set up to share
resources and discuss on the forum etc.
Have a look at http://year12.ning.com/
Anyone can sign up and you don't have to have your
photo there.
