The funding will cover one full or two half scholarships (fees only) and will be available to support students who would not otherwise be able to attend. We're also delighted to announce that programme tutors will include Nancy Baym, Stuart Cunningham, Jack Linchuan Qiu, Brian Fitzgerald and Axel Bruns. Together with other participating tutors, these faculty members will lead a programme that will cover topics such as the growth and implications of user-generated content, citizen media and community journalism, and regulatory barriers to innovation online. The full list of tutors includes faculty from the OII and the Berkman Center, who have taught on the Programme since its establishment in 2003, and is still being updated. The application process closes on Monday 16 February 2009: http://www.oii.ox.ac.uk/teaching/sdp/Y2009.cfm Best wishes, Victoria Nash, Director of Graduate Studies Oxford Internet Institute -- Dr Marcus Foth Senior Research Fellow Institute for Creative Industries and Innovation Queensland University of Technology (CRICOS No. 00213J) Creative Industries Precinct, Brisbane QLD 4059, Australia Phone +61 7 313 x88772 - Fax x88195 - Office Z6-511 m.foth@qut.edu.au - http://www.urbaninformatics.net/ _______________________________________________ Comtech mailing list Comtech@fit.fraunhofer.de https://mail.fit.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/comtech
