Andy Phippen is Professor of Social Responsibility
in IT at The University of Plymouth he said in a recent interview "I have
been aware of Russell for a number of years and have had the privilege of
working with him on a number of occasions recently. Not only does he have a
great grasp of the power of broadcast technology as a means of communication, he
also has a knowledge and enthusiasm for technology which means he is both an
insightful interviewer and also an evangelist of the positive empowerment that
results from technology. At Plymouth University we have a growing realisation
that we have considerable expertise in the areas of digital awareness and online
safety and we look forward to a closer working relationship with Russell to
bring his skills into the mix to both ask difficult questions and also get the
message out”.
Live Radio Shows:
FREE School Radio Calendar
We've launched a new FREE service for School Radio Stations,
SchoolRadioCalendar.org a central
Calendar that has broadcast dates and times for any school radio station
broadcast that's live on the Internet. Educators are encouraged to
register their School Radio Station and post listening details, photos and live
show times. School Radio Calendar will provide an easy to use central
place to find live school radio broadcasts and station information.
New for this term, we've teamed up with some experts in their
fields to bring you a
Religious Education Radio Workshop with Sharon Artley, a
MFL Radio Workshop with Joe Dale and an
E-Safety and Digital Literacy Radio Workshop with Simon Finch.
These are whole day live radio workshops with specific curriculum themes running
right through them. We provide everything included consultancy before we
arrive to ensure that we meet all of your learning objectives on the day.
This is a fixed price workshop for up to 40, more information

What people are saying
Gareth Ritter
Willows high School, Cardiff
After meeting Russell at BETT I knew instantly we were dealing with a professional outfit. From placing the order to having the training the quality of the service was outstanding. The technical support has been probably the best I have ever experienced. The Broadcaster radio station is changing the way we deliver our curriculum at our school. I would welcome anyone to get in touch with me via my web site if you need convincing further, I would be more than happy to showcase some of the amazing results we are having as a result of Russell’s work and the fantastic system. It really was money well spent.
Published by Continuum Books "Mathematics Education with Digital Technology" edited by Adrian Oldknow & Carol Knights, Russell has written Chapter 12 "Home & School - Bridging the Gap" The title draws on the expertise of a wide range of contributors from across the globe. It is thought provoking and challenging and covers a diverse range of ICT. It is hoped that this publication can move the agenda forward and bring ICT to all our students. ISBN 978-1-4411-8472-6 published by www.Continuumbooks.com 2011 Other contributors include Don Passey, Andy Kemp, Vanessa Pittard and David Wright, the book is highly recommended but it isn't for the faint hearted.
RM Education has just published a rather interesting case study on
Langley Hall Primary Academy
one of the country's first FREE SCHOOLS. The Broadcaster Desktop is proving to be very popular as the
cheapest digital turnkey system on the market. Based on Russell's eleven years
of research looking at innovative ways to engage and motivate young people,
this kit really goes the job! Everything you need to get started
is included for just £5,500.00 plus VAT, this even includes training. For more information about this product visit

We
have created our lowest cost product so that more of you may
benefit from the thrill of live broadcasting. Our unique
approach to having the computer do all of the complex mixing has
enabled us to offer incredible functionality at this
amazing low
cost. No other School Radio provider has attempted this.
With us, you
start with the minimum amount of equipment needed to broadcast
professionally. Then as you develop your capability and
resources permit, you can build your system up into a brilliant
fully specified Dual Studio School Radio Station, without compromising your previous
investment. Flight cases can be purchased separately saving
you cost if you don't
need to regularly move your Broadcaster Desktop at first.
We've
been building Radio Stations since 2009 and our customers have experienced an
incredibly high level of reliability with our own specialised
Industrial PC and Digital Sound Control Centre so we have kept
this as the central component for our Broadcaster Desktop.
Booting from a solid state hard drive into Windows 7 Ultimate,
this is the "top spec" version of Windows 7 and is designed for
this sort of HD. Our system is
exceptionally quick and will have your system up and running in
a few seconds. The Two Disk RAID1 500GB Hard Disk Array
will ensure your jingles and music files remain backed up at all
times and stored on two independent drives. Not one of our existing customers has lost a file
through a single hard disk failure. The 23" Touch Screen
is a joy to work with, it has increased screen real-estate that
we have been able to use to bring more functionality at a lower
cost. The ON AIR and MIC LIVE lights are
shown on-screen, an
external dual illuminated sign is available as a cost option and
is available as standard with a guest studio pack. Every possible upgrade path has been
considered so we can provide you with an effective way of
growing your system when resources permit.
The M-Audio AC30 Desktop Monitor Speakers are small and
surprisingly powerful rated at 15w each. As you would expect with any
sophisticated broadcasting solution, these speakers are
automatically muted when a microphone channel is opened.
Two pairs of the XPX2000 DJ Headphones are included as standard,
they are chunky, sound amazing and have an excellent high
definition bass response. As all of the mixing is done in
a true digital state, the Behringer Flying Fader desk can be
remotely controlled by our software, allowing our unique One
Touch Autofade to assist young or inexperienced broadcasters to
have a great live show.
