Graham McElearney
As an archaeologist by training it's appropriate that my involvement in e-learning and the ALT dates back to the dim and distant past of the early 1990s. I am currently responsible for developing our lecture recording service here at Sheffield, supporting our electronic voting system, and the use of podcasting and video in learning and teaching. In addition to being the University's Institutional contact for the Association, I am also a member of the steering group for the Media Enhanced Learning Special Interest Group. Outside of work my main interest is music, playing in a few local bands, being involved in various recording projects, and doing the occasional spot of DJ-ing.
