its about time for a five a week

22 May 09 | Alex
We have not done a 'five things we have done this week' since the 8th of May – we must have managed to forget last week - and Betony was the only one of us who put anything in for the 8th! Debatewise is defiantly needing a new one so you all know what exciting things (or otherwise) we have been up too since.
Alex
1, Looked through the WUDC rules and made changes so that they can be used for the WODC (now I need to change them on an electronic copy rather than using traditional pencil and paper)
2, Attempted to edit debates on Boudicca and Stalingrad. I was surprised that I could find almost nothing online relating to the Boudicca question... everything ends with her death (by poision) and the manner of her burial is not really mentioned. Cassius Dio mentions her as being buried but is not specific. To me as the only ‘primary’ source I have found that mentions how she was buried at all (there are only three that mention the whole rebellion) it seems to be case closed... someone else please find something relevant and edit this debate!!!
3, Spent some time looking for funding for revisewise. Unfortunately the British funding system for education seems to be rather obsessed with Higher Education and Further Education institutions rather than how outside organisations can help those institutions, or the students within them. 
4, Continued my overall vision of revisewise document... this will be ongoing as either my idea, or David’s idea of revisewise and the uses it can be put to seems to change each week!
5, Written two documents; on how we deal with plagiarism and how revisewise can be used in seminars and essays.
