Fieldwork

Welcome to the Technology and Social Action Website

This site was established as part of the Technology and Social Action project to foster dialogue and collaboration between activists in social movements, voluntary and community organisations and technology designers. It was funded under the Designing for the 21st Century initiative of the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council.

here is the first piece of new casework I have since the meeting which involves technology, social action, participative methods,

and the mistery of why the file I sent has all its formatting data stripped out

Clodagh Miskelly and Steve Walker have evaluated projects in very different contexts. Come and join in the conversation at

Skype meeting of the project management group.

Used the taxonomy_access module to create public and private tags. Anonymous users can see the public tagged content but only registered users can see the private content.

plagiarised a quick php sql query to list all registered users and links to there profiles.

<?php

$header = array(
array('data' => t('Username'), 'field' => 'u.name', 'sort' => 'asc')
);
$sql = "SELECT u.uid, u.name FROM {users} u WHERE u.uid > 1";
$sql .= tablesort_sql($header);
$result = pager_query($sql, 50);

$status = array(t('blocked'), t('active'));
while ($account = db_fetch_object($result)) {

The "Practical Design for Social Action" project's goal is to develop and extend the capability of social action organisations to creatively design new practices by appropriating and adapting Internet Communication Technologies. PRADSA is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) as part of its Designing for the 21st Century programme.
