Currently I am on the course team writing TU100 My Digital Life which is planned for first presentation in Autumn 2011. Other courses that I have written material for in recent years include:
- T325 Technologies for Digital Media (presented for the first time in February 2009)
- T324 Keeping Ahead in Information and Communication Technologies (presented for the first time in February 2007)
- T175 Networked Living: Exploring Information and Communication Technologies (presented for the first time in October 2005.)
- T823 Multiservice Networks: controls (presented for the first time in May 2004)
- T822 Multiservice Networks: structures (presented for the first time May 2003)
Also the discontinued courses T305 Digital Communications, T322 Digital Telecommunications, PT629 Digital Telecommunications: Transmission and T102 Living with technology.
I chaired the production of T305 and most of its presentations. It had ten UK presentations (1999 - 2008) and was studied by a total of about 10 000 students.

My blogs
I currently have two Blogs. Intropy where I put things that might have something to my work and research interests, and Nutshell Truths where I put things that maybe should be distanced from my work.
