Students doing the Dorset Fieldcourse will post their analysis of the spatial activity of their allocated primate at Monkey World to a wiki (http://professorpbrains.pbwiki.com/) on their return to Swansea. This group activity can be carried out in different ways but the wiki will enable the staff to determine who has made particular contributions to the resulting account (the pattern of postings can be examined historically). The item will not be included in the total word count for the report (so it would be a good idea to include some information of the 'normal' behaviour of your species as seen in the wild). The activity should also enable the students to develop a wider range of skills.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
