Endings and beginnings

Created by Catherine Howell (La Trobe University) on December 2, 2008

No one who reads Ida Takes Tea can have missed the fact that I've not been posting regularly. It's been one of those cases of life intervening! So, I'm very pleased to announce that I'm moving to a new job as Educational Designer at La Trobe University, starting in mid-December 2008. After eight years in the UK, I'm very pleased to have returned to Australia, and I'm excited to be joining my new colleagues at La Trobe. There are some interesting initiatives starting up at La T., and in 2009 I'll aim to keep you all informed on these new institutional projects, and on news in general from the Australian e-learning community.

Of course, I'm also sad to be leaving CARET and all the fantastic people I've met and worked with over the past few years, both inside and outside Cambridge. The last few weeks in the UK were absolutely hectic, and apologies are due to everyone I didn't manage to catch up with while I was frantically arranging travel and shipping. I won't make the Ascilite conference this year, so Matt Riddle will be presenting our joint paper in Melbourne, but I will be in Cairns for OZCHI. The ed. tech. and HCI communities don't always overlap -- not often enough, perhaps -- but I'll hope to see some of you there.
