In my inbox this morning I was delighted to see the regular mailing of, "Signpost," from Tom Holloway. U3A-Signpost is sent out as a one-page email on the first of every month by the U3A Internetwork Group UK and U3A Online Australia to any and all U3A members.
Signpost aims to deliver access to educational resources of a (mostly) non-computer nature to be found on the world-wide-web. History, Philosophy, Art and Poetry links are there in profusion.
The latest mailing of Signpost, which I received today from Tom, includes the following goodies!
- There are still places available for UK/Australian Online Courses starting
in September. Please see UK/Australian Online Courses
- Cooking For Engineers is run for fun by Michael Chu, a computer engineer living in Silicon Valley California.
- The Science and Development Network aims to provide reliable and authoritative information about science and technology for the developing world. Plenty of material here
for talks and discussion. http://www.scidev.net
