Good Morning World!

Kirsty Adams Uncategorized

First of all..Come On Murray!!
Murray v Nadal LIVE on BBC.co.uk now. He’s doing quite good and its an awesome match so far. Incredible shots being played from them both. God I love Tennis! Its about the only sport I really really enjoy playing and watching.

And secondly…I’m still having a play with the ‘ict root blog’ at the minute, sorted out a theme and widgets that may suit the real blog when its created. This one is just a tester, an experiment if you wish, to see how the real one will look and work.
So far, I suppose its not too bad apart from the little problem I’m having trying to incorporate Nick Jackson’s Blog. Its fed mine through the root blog with no problem but I’ve tried to feed Nick’s through and its not having it unfortunately. Maybe its something I haven’t done…most probably is!!
Anyhoo…hopefully will get it sorted (with a little help from Joss) and then in the not too distant future, will have a real root blog set up for the Online Services Team to write on! And then, maybe, the whole of ICT, then….the whole University, MWAHAHAHAHA!!
IT WILL ALL BE MINE!!!

An Apology

Kirsty Adams Uncategorized , , , , , ,

I really should make an apology to David Raines, Creator of the Portal, for a previous post I wrote. He found my post and I don’t think he was too happy! So to prove that the Portal isn’t as useless as people may think, he helped me find useful documents =) And I have to say, they are a big help! I specifically wanted documents on the University Regulations with regard to Assignments etc and information on Plagiarism, and Dave found them for me.
(Please note, it was Dave who found them, so I feel there is still a problem with finding things. I find it to be very ‘busy’.)

Also, after looking around Blackboard Dave found some Communities that I could enrol to that give information on Plagiarism and Exam techniques. Absolutely brilliant!
The thing is…I never knew these existed. So for the past 2 years I have been completely oblivious to these guidelines because the academics didn’t tell us about them! Why they wouldn’t tell us about something like this is unbeknown to me.

Better late than never I suppose.
