Site of the month

In this feature, I'll be pointing you towards an interesting website that I've come across (or one of my old favourites) related to issues in higher education. To start off with, how about the Oxford Internet Institute (OII)? This multidisciplinary organisation is exploring the social and cultural impact of the internet from a range of different perspectives. The OII publishes a number of short papers on various issues and has by now built up quite a collection. In addition, their seminar and lecture programme spans a range of topics and can be accessed through their webcast service, albeit that the visual quality of some of the presentations is compromised by their usual single fixed camera approach. However, certainly worth a visit and the quality of discussion is good.
