I've had this poster/image up on a bulletin board in my office for about a year now. I had always intended to share it, as there is lots of great stuff in it to unpack and think about, but lost the bookmark to the original and couldn't find it! (when did the Internet get so big???)

Anyway, here it is in all its glory 4mb jpg glory!

Just in case anyone missed it (I would have if my wife hadn't brought her copy home), the latest ETFO magazine ("Voice") had 3 great articles

(coincidentally, 2 of the articles were about/by Commun-IT.org members!)

 

Also of note on the graphic novels idea, OSAPAC has announced that licensing a piece of software to help teachers/students author their own graphic novels/comics is a priority this year (http://www.osapac.org)
