iGeneration 2006 has come to a close and the unit will not be running again until semester 2, 2007.

I thought it would be good to maintain the site with the front page showing the "best of" videoblogs by students. For security reasons we'll have to terminate access now that the new year has begun (a regrettable but unavoidable decision) - so I hope that the site will remain of interest to former students, their friends and families - not to mention academic colleagues who may be contemplating something similar. It has been enormously successful and the sense of community that developed was quite unique - fascinating to participate in - and I trust that there will now be a budding population of vloggers from the group!

So here it is: the "best of" - this is mainly my selection - informed by an informal vote that the group held in our last meeting in 2006. You'll be able to find all posts via links in the left sidebar - check out "All Video Blogs" and "All Blogs" - the next development I'm looking into is enabling links to individual student's vlogs, so that it is easier to navigate through the content - oh for a good taxonomy! Have fun

The BEST (maybe) of iGeneration 2006 (in no particular order)

This week’s episode of SHIOK, MATE! celebrates the diversity of Malaysian food, featuring the cuisine of Ipoh, Perak, that can be found right here in Perth!

A town defined by and renowned for its food, Ipoh offers a tantalizing array of its own unique Chinese fare brought in by early settlers from other parts of Asia many generations before. One of its many famous dishes includes “Ipoh Hor Fun” or flat rice noodles (which you will get to see in this episode), of which there are two varieties: the first is Sar hor fun, served in a clear chicken and prawn soup with shredded chicken, prawns and spring onions, and the other is the “dry” Chau hor fun that is fried with a little dark gravy.
