City University UK Summer 2008 Masterclass Series

Seeing that I attended the first one of these on Wednesday (and very informative it was too, with unique insights in Google Earth and similar tools) I thought I'd post a reminder on City University giCentre announcing their programme of summer Masterclasses delivered by their internationally known group of academics, programmers, writers and entrepreneurs. City Masterclasses are delivered from an informed and neutral third-perspective by those with deep knowledge of their subjects and proven teaching skills. Attending City Masterclasses can be a valuable 'heads up' on the explosive development of these various fields or a piece of continuing professional development.

All the Masterclasses have high instructor/ participant ratios and include hands on sessions with the technology and are held in a variety of locations (see details) including City University's accessible and brand new accommodation between Angel and Farringdon in central London. They will also provide an opportunity to meet other professionals in the same area and a chance to see the innovative research being conducted in these areas at the University.

The schedule for these events is as follows: Wednesday June 4th Geospatial mashups [City University], Thursday June 26th Mobile navigation [City University], Wednesday July 9th State of the Art in Location Based Services 2008 [National Physical Lab, Teddington] and Tuesday July 22nd Mobile search [City University] (http://www.soi.city.ac.uk/~dmm/masterclasses/).
