The JISC-funded Enlightening Science Project at the University of Sussex was established to create a unique educational resource to inform and engage scholars, students and the wider public interested in the core concepts behind Newton’s scientific achievements. The core of the work will be the creation of a number of Virtual Learning Objects freely available to the public. Each Learning Object will explore a specific Newtonian topic, such as: Science and Religion, Newton’s Optics, Newton’s Physics, Newton the Man, and Newtonian Audiences. They will contain a selection of historical texts, interviews with scientists and historians, audio and video podcast introductions, as well as video recreations of eighteenth century experiments and lectures, with the aim of bringing Newton’s scientific works to life for 21st century audiences.

This amusing and exceptionally well-informed resource is the brainchild of director and movie buff Joe Dante. It brings together classic and not-so-classic film trailers and then provides introductions and audio commentaries for them from a wide variety of film industry professionals including such notable movie makers as Dante himself, Edgar Wright, John Landis, Guillermo del Toro, Mary Lambert, John Sayles and Roger Corman, amongst others. The site can be searched by film title, genre, decade and the person making the commentary. The range of films is very broad so that one can hear some straightforward praise as when director John Badham discusses the trailer for To Kill a Mockingbird, which co-starred his sister Mary, and make-up guru Rick Baker comments on the biopic of his hero Lon Chaney, but there are also such unlikely juxtapositions as Neil Labute discussing British technicolor classic, Black Narcissus.

Links-up is an EU project looking at how ‘Web 2.0’ technologies – e.g. social networking software – are changing the face of education and training for disadvantaged people. The project puts together a picture of the ‘landscape’ of ‘Learning 2.0 for Inclusion’ by reviewing what has been done in the academic and research field, as well as by practitioners working on the ground. It uses a series of ‘action research’ experiments, collaborating with host projects working in the field, to evaluate the added contribution Web 2.0 can make to practices that use learning to support social inclusion. The website offers a collection of case studies as well as podcasts on local initiatives such as the Podcasting-Workshop in Senior citizen center of Walser Birnbaum.

A project co-ordinated by the World Service to build a sound map of the world by asking listeners to send in recordings of sounds from their regions, particularly ones that might be in danger of disappearing. The site includes a couple of Discovery programmes featuring a range of experts concerned with acoustic ecology in the urban soundscape, as well as tips on making recordings. The project has now ended and the website is no longer being updated, but the sounds that have been gathered are still available on demand or as podcasts.
