Dear colleagues,

I am designing a course in which 4 disciplines are to be considered
by undergraduates for how they use digital resources. Before I get to
listing which are in fact used, I'd like the students to understand
in a broad sense how each works -- what sort of questions it
entertains, what it accepts as answers or responses, what sort of
language is employed and so forth. My colleague John Lavagnino
suggested that for each discipline I should be giving the students an
article to read, specifically one in which the audience comprises
others in the field. So I need recommendations for exemplary articles.

The disciplines are philosophy, history, literary studies and
archaeology -- chosen precisely for the differences in what each
considers a resource to be. Of course the practices within each vary
widely, so choosing one article is a bit problematic. But if you
wanted someone (say a daughter or son) to get a grip on what each of
those disciplines is all about, and you wanted to make sure said
person did the homework, what articles would you choose?

Many thanks.

Yours,
WM

Dear all,

I'm collecting examples of the Virtual Lightbox as its been
implemented in various places around the Web. If you've used the
Lightbox yourself, or know of a use to which someone else has put it,
would you send me along a link?

The Virtual Lightbox is a free Java applet distributed by MITH for
comparing, studying, and manipulating sets of images online:

Thanks in advance--Matt

Hello everyone,
I have recently subscribed to the list and look forward to following
discussions.
Living in the NW of England for almost 30 years now I have worked in
the NHS in mental health. An interest in informatics began in 1981.
Currently I am seconded to my Trust's NHS Care Record Service
Project, and since 1997 I have been webmaster for -
Hodges' Health Career - Care Domains - Model [h2cm]
http://www.p-jones.demon.co.uk/
- can help map health, social care PLUS other issues, problems and
solutions. The
model takes a situated and multi-contextual view across four knowledge domains:
* Interpersonal;
* Sociological;
* Empirical;
* Political.
Our links pages cover each care (knowledge) domain e.g. Interpersonal:
http://www.p-jones.demon.co.uk/links.htm
Sociology:
http://www.p-jones.demon.co.uk/links3.htm
I am currently trying to complete a paper on Hodges model and
selected works of Michel Serres.
Kind regards
