Information And Communications Technology in Uk Schools - an Independent Inquiry
-
The report of the group established in the UK in 1996 at the behest of Tony Blair, Labour Party leader in opposition, and David Blunkett, Shadow Minister of Education, to examine the role that ICT should be playing in primary and secondary education. This was, in part, due to their recognition that the networking issues raised over the previous two years (cabling and the National Grid for Learning), were only two of many issues that needed to be understood in the wider context of technology in education. Tony Blair and David Blunkett established the group independently of the Labour Party, making it plain that the members of the group should be chosen for their skills and not for their political background.

What is an affordance and can it help us understand the use of ICT in education?
-
This paper revisits the concept of affordance and explores its contribution to an understanding of the use of ICT for teaching and learning. It looks at Gibson‟s original idea of affordance and at some of the difficulties long associated with the use of the word. It goes on to describe the translation of the concept of affordance into the field of design through the work, in particular, of Norman. The concept has since been translated into research concerning ICT and further opportunities and difficulties emerge. The paper locates key points of divergence within the usage of „affordance‟, as involving direct perception, invariant properties and complementarity. It concludes by arguing that affordance offers a distinctive perspective on the use of ICT in education because of its focus on possibilities for action.

Peer reviewed publications
-
This uses a broad definition of 'peer reviewed' to include those reviewed by: formal academic journals; colleagues in the context of higher education practice; editors; television producers and conference presentation committees. It does not include originally self-published material, although I have often subseqently self-published extracts from peer-reviewed work.

Eye and Brain: the psychology of seeing
-
In this book, Gregory offers clear explanations of how we see brightness, movement, color, and objects, and he explores the phenomena of visual illusions to establish principles about how perception normally works and why it sometimes fails. The phenomena of illusion continue to be a major theme in the book, in which the author makes a new attempt to provide a comprehensive classification system. There are also new sections on what babies see and how they learn to see, on motion perception, and tantalizing glimpses of the relationship between vision and consciousness and of the impact of new brain imaging techniques. In addition, the presentation of the text and illustrations has been improved by the larger format and new page design. ( http://www.neebo.com/ )
