DIAL links
We are in the process of creating an online forum/website home for DIAL, we are planing to take advantage of existing frameworks and developments to host and build this space using drupal, more about this in the 3 month project plan I'll be posting shortly. We would like the 'official' project blog to be embedded in the new DIAL website.
We're also keen to use existing UAL initiatives to surface the project in different circles, all will eventually point back to the official DIAL website home, please see some early examples below:

I've been thinking about the possibility of 'DIAL artists in residence' to help communicate the concepts of the project (Digital Intergration into arts Learning) and the concepts of Digital literacy - http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/seminars/digital-literacy
Also - thinking about the notion of NOT DIGITAL ‘Natives’ & ‘Immigrants’ but ‘Visitors’ & ‘Residents’- see - http://tallblog.conted.ox.ac.uk/index.php/2008/07/23/not-natives-immigrants-but-visitors-residents/
Who would make a good artist in residence for the DIAl project?
