In particular, I&#8217;m interested in how national inclusion strategies and global (economic) information interests &#8211; embodied by new technologies &#8211; are experienced in and around the HE classroom.<span> <\/span>Hopefully this visit will allow me to couch my research in a wider, more internationally applicable context. The only downside has to be that I&#8217;m travelling during UK academic down-time (August) so I can&#8217;t benefit from the joys of an Australian summer!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\r\n\t\t<!-- BEGIN ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_START:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\tshowOdiogoReadNowButton (\"687068\", \"U21 Prize Scholarship\", \"59\", 290, 55);\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<br\/>\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\tshowInitialOdiogoReadNowFrame (\"687068\", \"59\", 290, 0);\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_END:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<!-- END ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t\n<p>I&#8217;m fortunate to announce that, with support from academics in the UK and Australia, I&#8217;ve won the Universitas 21 Prize Scholarship to continue my studies at the University of Melbourne, for a month later this year.
