This is my JCU web site which grew from a need to document university activities.
I also have a personal web site.

March 2008: I have left JCU after a satisfying period when I had the privilege to return and contribute to the first university that I studied at. Colin Lemmon is handling my role of academic adviser, Nic Bidwell has my management role of deputy HoS, and Jason Holdsworth has taken on teaching of my final subjects cp2377/cp5377 and cp3110/cp5610 (other materials here). Related positive outcomes have included improving community engagement and, with major input from Dr Chris Gaskett and his cp3046/cp3047, developing a collaborative projects process for BIT and MIT students who now benefit from synergy between subjects {cp3110, cp3120, cp3046/7, & MIT versions}. Our group also did good work for the Multimedia Game Development BIT/MIT program and the Cairns staff team driven papers criticism subject, which tends to lead to student honours and graduation.
