Reading around the subject - Poster

Image
I've tried various ways of encouraging students to read around the subject, sometimes with success - mostly talking to keen students about relevant texts is the best way, although a good display helps! With this in mind, I have put this poster together - inspired by the work of Twitter Educationalist Mark Anderson ( https://twitter.com/ICTEvangelist) . It is designed to look like a "periodic table" and is organised into broad themes which we cover in our various courses: As with a real periodic table I have tried to demonstrate a range of complexity; by putting the more straight-forward texts towards the top and the more complex and challenging towards the bottom. In case anyone wants to have their own version for editing (as not everyone covers the Tudors, the Dutch Revolt and Health & the People!) here is the editable PUB file (for MS Publisher 2013) . Here is the PDF file if you'd like that instead !
