Doug Belshaw’s Summary
I've recently been appointed 'Director of E-Learning' at a new Academy in Northumberland. Apart from E-Learning and all things ICT-related my main interests are in History and Philosophy, the former being the subject of my MA and the latter my BA (Hons).
I'm currently studying towards an Ed.D. at the University of Durham, my thesis looking at the concept of 'digital literacy' from a Pragmatic perspective.
