First meeting - project kick-off and seminar on Activity Theory

Today the project team met for the first time for a two day meeting at the School of Public Health at UWC.

On the first day the following issues were discussed:

- project plan
- communication and meeting strategies
- roles and responsibilities
- research agreement and ethical issues
- literature review / theoretical framework
- objectives of survey

The second day was an excellent introduction to Cultural-historical Activity Theory (CHAT) by Jo-Anne Hardman from UCT. See Michael's blog for a summary of this session.

    Thank you for setting up the blog Daniela. This journey account will form an important part of the project. The photos came out very nicely. I must agree, Joanne's mediation on CHAT was mind expanding, Thanks Joanne and Viv for making the learning possible.

    Just one thing about the heading - we are now 8 HEIs rather than 7 - is it possible to change the heading?
