To: Sci-3L group Still no response at all to my message last week (about promoting lifelong learning in ways other than providing credit-bearing courses for the public). Do, please, reply even if it is just to say that in your circumstances you feel that credit-bearing courses are effective and efficient. I really would be very interested. On another topic: I recently submitted a statement of intent to propose a European network ("Science in Context" - Research, Outreach and Lifelong Learning) within the Union's Sixth Framework Programme (FP6). If you are also hoping to be involved in an FP6 proposal, please contact me either through this list or directly. Regards, Martin Counihan University of Southampton [log in to unmask]
