BBC and Star Trek

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 12:04:02 +0100

According to the Star Trek Fan site memory-alpha the BBC was the first-run broadcaster of Star Trek (12 July 1969-15 December 1971) and TNG (26 September 1990-6 May 1992, up to "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II"). After 1992, the first-run rights of TNG – and later DS9 and Voyager – went to Sky One, with the BBC showing the episodes several months later.

The SONY KDL-32U3000 would be the perfect TV if it didn't have tuners

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 00:04:21 +0000

unfortunately it has both Analogue and Digital tuners build in which sets back my plans to throw away my tv by at least five years (since i'm now commited to paying UK TV TAX @ £100/y forever or until i throw it away) !

It also acts as the perfect 32" 1280x768 monitor

Still it has helped with the TAYT proof of concept. Here's BBC iPlayer (which is only available from UK IP addresses) running

Renaissance Classroom Response System (CRS)

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Sat, 18 Aug 2007 14:27:44 +0100

I've heard of the OLPC but what is this ?

http://www.alphasmart.co.uk/crs/
Imagine a classroom where ALL of your pupils are involved in the lesson ... where ALL of them are enthusiastic ... where you can interactively assess how they are doing using tests, audience reaction and formative assessments to help the teaching and learning process.

I think i prefer the BBC voting system where the audience wave light sabres in the air !
