Cleveratom ran Anglia Ruskin University Summer School 2007

2007-05-08

It was very nice to walk back into the Anglia Ruskin University buildings last Thursday and Friday to run the University Summer School. I left Anglia Ruskin University in December 2006 when its Ultralab (1990-2006) was closed down. Every year the University runs a Summer School programme.

It was very nice to walk back into the Anglia Ruskin University buildings last Thursday and Friday to run the University Summer School. I left Anglia Ruskin University in December 2006 when its Ultralab (1990-2006) was closed down. Every year the university runs a Summer School programme to attract new students. The idea of the programme is to give young people a small taste of university life. I've been a part of Anglia's Summer School programme since 2001, and it was really nice to be invited back and be at the heart of it all. Hal MacLean and I worked with Ian Ericson from the university to deliver a programme in broadcast journalism. The work produced by the young people in such a short space of time was quite simply awesome. Twenty-three young people from surrounding schools took part in the two-day event. Hopefully, some of them will now consider university as an option. The work they undertook was shared via the Digital Creativity site (now offline)
