New term. Some gloom. Missed the Poetry conference organised by Morag Styles at the British Library today and next day. Only read an email from Morag today that offered me a place...hmm - my fault - been to France.
Mark Betteney, a past MA in Literacy and Learning student, now working at London Met., has an article published in the Spring 2009 edition of English 4 - 11. I was glad to see that Mark's article has a critical edge. It's on the use of the Interactive white board. Cracking review of my little mini-book 'Poetry Matters' on the back of the same issue. I really like the idea of this journal, although I would like to read articles in it that are a little more daring and veer from the government line more often.
I'm giving a lecture on popular culture and digital literacy tomorrow to undergraduates. I wish someone had leaked the Rose Review intentions on twitters to me. I'm having to draw on the press - really tedious stuff about how twitters will be replacing the teaching of the Victorians...yawn.
