Welcome to hicub

This is the HiCUB Media and Communications Scrapbook - used in the early stages of the HiCUB project in 2010, a collaborative workspace for thoughts, ideas, images, videos, notes - to help build the communications strategies to be used on the HiCUB Project over the life of the project to 2012.
It was a beta phase in which the Community of Interest clustered around the project could experiment with content and blogging.
With SVM this group formed a learning community around the project
HiCUB is the High Country Urban Biodiversity Project run in the New England region of northern NSW

An unusual post.. Worth reading!

Hi all.. This is an unusual post for the Australian River Restoration Centre.. I don’t usually forward these types of emails.. but this one certainly puts everything in perspective!

Bronnie Ware is a palliative care nurse and during her time working with people who were facing death, she discovered the ‘top five regrets of the dying’:

Hope you have a happy/silly day! (in reference to the last regret)..

Cheers,

Tom.

Science Week, Web Mapping Portal and another blog..

A few weeks ago a few of us from the NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW) organised and undertook an activity for National Science Week (aimed at promoting Science) with the year eight students at the Armidale Waldorf school.. Follow the link to see the blog that describes what we did.  You can also listen to some frog calls we recorded.. And it was heaps of fun!

Instead of relying on giving out information, we have to use emotions, humor, visuals, anything and all to draw people in, hold their attention, and make them learn.
