Just what is this?

The idea behind this web log is to provide a way for Dunstable College Art Design & Media staff to maintain a web page of resources for their students. Library staff can also add items they find and add useful updates for this department.

Headings and the articles, or bits of them, can be featured on the College VLE course pages or on the Library web pages - automatically updated every time someone adds or amends something.
This is the place to add links to sites new and old, publish notes or reviews or virtually anything that students or colleagues might find helpful.

Just part of my continuing efforts to make life more interesting using new technology for students.
