So....busy working on my sixth story - Academic Development in SA universities. Had an absolutely fantastic interview with Chrissie Boughey on friday.
Part of it was the cool things she was saying, but it was also that I was able to really engage with her, mostly because of interviews I'd been doing for all the other stories this term. I referred to things that about five other people had said, and you could see she was very impressed. I looked VERY well informed, and she started taking me more and more seriously - when I first went in she was quite distracted and looked like she just wanted to get it over and done with. So....hope I can write a good story about it. She asked me to send me a copy before publication, and I said yes. I've never actually been able to say no to this kind of request - I am, after all, a student journalist, and in their position I'd want the same thing.
Tomorrow I'm going to an e-learning 'webinar' with a professor at an italian university (who will be sitting in front of a webcam in italy). I don't need the story, but I think it'll be quite interesting. I'm interested in IT developments, so....
