Pencils and books are not enough in today’s classrooms — educators face the challenge of finding creative ways to keep students engaged through inventive uses of technology that make learning not feel like learning.

Over the next few weeks I will be updated lectures on the blog. I will also be using various social media sites for examples and for videos e.g. YouTube, Vimeo, twitter etc

Tweak is an interactive art and live electronic music festival taking place in Limerick City between the 21st and 26th of September 2009. Its aim is to promote understanding of the use of technology within our culture and to explore contemporary issues (social, economic, psychological, aesthetic and functional).
The festival will consist of a 5-day exhibition, (interactive artworks, robots and installations) comprising of artworks from international and local artists, 3 days of workshops and many evenings of live electronic performance. Check out theprogramme and our blog for all the latest news.
Tweak examines the growing impact of digital technologies in the creation of art and aesthetic experience. Providing a space for Digital Artists to redefine the nature of technology within our lives, the festival intends to create public awareness of the complex nature of technology and explore the relationship technology has to our lives.

I recently moved lock, stock and barrel over to mac operating systems, having used mac operating systms previously, this did not cause any major issues thankfully. I did find however, as elements of my daily work still revolve around helping and training individuals to use Non-linear editing systems on Windows I needed a solid solution to run my windows software.
I have tried dual booting systems, using bootcamp assistant, and I am aware of Parralles Desktop for Mac 4.
After speaking to one of my colleagues earlier in the week, he suggested Sun Virtualbox.
I am putting it through its paces with Adobe Production Premium CS4, and I will keep you updated as to how it goes.
I could use bootcamp which would probably let the application run faster etc, but there’s the issue of rebooting the whole time.
