Thank you to Ewan McIntosh for the reference to the findings of Aberdeen Myst Project.

The project seems to have been a great success and has been well documented and recorded, including interviews with some of the teachers involved. I am glad to have been part of the experience and look forward to a return trip, to extend ideas further, in April next year.

For those who might ask “Looks good but… does it work?” read Ewan’s summary and thoughts HERE or explore the Aberdeen Games Based Learning case study HERE

Ewan keeps an excellent, informative and authoritative blog, and wins my prize for the most regularly updated and maintained site. Well worth a look.

Like Prof Heppell I love sailing. As Stephen shared with me at BETT in January, it is the joy of beating the wind and harnessing it to help you explore.

I enjoyed a last sail of the year with my dad and my daughter, Ellie.

A thoroughly relaxing time. Amazing what a bit of fresh air can do for the soul. Sat, at one time, looking out across sun-dappled water, to a wooded headland, Autumn air, and thought… “LOVE it! I wanna do it all, and I want to do it soon! Thank you.”

Feel very fortunate to be able to sail independently. I really appreciate the work done by the RYA to ensure equal access to the sailing experience for people with disabilities.

Ready for the new term…
