I got busy with the GRC Viz and things and didn't check for new members for awhile. I came back to 45 applicants! Sadly, about a third of them were advertising or completely unrelated. Please don't join if you aren't working in the core area of the community. Thanks! Liz D.

What's on Your Member Page? Share your research, create a workshop, have your students create a class resource page, or stream live video. This social network is an experimental space for bringing together different disciplinary "worlds" for collaboration and discussion.

The Groups listed on this page (join below) contain a growing collection of links to research by experts in key areas, related journals, and open discussions. Watch the JCE Digital Library Group for an upcoming online workshop.

Latest news for chemical education devotees. We created a new ning network for ACS Division of Chemical Education during the BCCE! Apply to join the network, but as far as I know, it is limited to DivCHED dues-paying members. Membership grew to nearly 300 in the week after the BCCE (Biennial Conference on Chemical Education)!

Second Life is a good place to contact me these days (as Chimera Cosmos). The Virtual Worlds: Libraries, Education and Museums Conference and the NMC Mashups Symposium were great events. See the New Media Consortium http://sl.nmc.org to learn about how hundreds of colleges and universities around the globe are participating and collaborating.

This Ning Network is configured to add photos from your Flickr account. You can also upload directly or post by email too. Click on the "Photos" tab above or "Add Photos" in the Photos widget in the left column of this page.

Anthropology Dissertation: in which areas/topics would you like to see more research done?

Hello All Dissertation Students,

Although I am quite sure what I want to do, I am interested in having views of others in the fields, and where they think research is lacking. With a bit of luck, my ideas will be amongst the areas suggested!

I am particularly interested in your… Continue
