Ken has uploaded a new June 2010 blog. Probably not the easiest way however wanting to checkout Office SharePoint Designer Ken exported his 2009 blog (see Blogroll) and opened it in SharePoint and then imported it back to this new blog. Ken then started deleting/editing it ready for this year. Ken will then log and record his field trip to Crete from the 15th to 22nd June 2010 with 2 other staff and 28 Geography students from the University of Reading. The changes this year are that DocuWiki is being used to keep students involved and some Flip Video MinoHD have been bought for recording interviews and presentations.
The groups will be interlinking their measurements and observations noted down in their A5 hardback notebooks with daily blogs on Dell mini 9 notebooks. These Dell mini 9 notebooks were used successfully during the June 2009 field trip. The extra software loaded was Map Source to transfer the Garmin E-trex Summit GPS readings off line and Live Writer to input to the wordpress web sites that each group had initially setup. As it turned out everybody could upload to the net when ever they wanted. The latest google earth with flash plugin was also loaded prior to the trip allowing transfer directly from the GPS or from the map source program.
