Seminar Description: The internet is not some grand misty ocean to be trawled with a fishnet. Rather, the internet is a highly organized resource and the doorway to most other information resources. It is just that the organizing principles are not obvious. You won't pick them up staring at the computer screen.
Course Objectives:
Intended Audience:
The Presenter: As a former information broker, he has encountered the power and expense of commercial information. As a graduate in Sociology, he bends social theory to account for publishing habits and aspects of internet development. David has also delivered training for a long time, even before the web arrived. More recently, there was an enjoyable 16 hours of talk-back TV. Not content with simple training, the last three years have been dedicated to researching and publishing on aspects of internet research. The best praise comes from those who recognize there are few others anywhere writing anything on exceptional internet research. David, while perhaps not alone in bridging information research and internet research, is certainly unique. This perspective empowers the Beyond Boolean seminar, ensuring an valuable experience for even the most experienced of internet researchers.
You can get a flavour of the seminar through other elements of the Spire Project - like the 100 pages of search techniques that is the Information Research FAQ, or our detailed look into specific sources like UN information and country profiles. The years of detailed study of information - a research into research - has led David to uncover many of the tenuous connections between information resources. In summary, David is an influential and deeply informed presenter. <read more>
I look forward to seeing you on the day.
