About Me:
After 20 years working as a stonemason and part-time trade skills teacher, an opportunity arose to teach stonemasonry full time. I embraced the chance to both learn more about my trade, and to help others gain a qualification in this area. Social networking makes it so easy to share e-learning heutagogy with colleagues around the world. My Windows Live Messenger address is cathetus@hotmail.com - call me and chat about vocational educational and training issues.

Hi Simon, how are you? Have you heard of YouFig.com? It's a useful site for collaboration between students and between teacher & class. It's invitation only and I still have a few invites left. Let me know if you'd like one. Looking forward to seeing you around here.

Hi JoNelle, keep up the good work with your class, it's so exciting to read about what you are doing.

I'd like to tell you about my classroom and its location in Brisbane (rhymes with Lisbon). It's at Eagle Farm, and you can see it if you copy and paste this link into your web browser, and then open it in Google Earth:
