Mr Ray Corrigan
I'm a Senior Lecturer in Technology at the Open University (OU) I have direct responsibility on a day to day level for about 70 associate lecturers and 1500 undergraduate students in the South of England studying the whole range of Open University technology courses (http://technology.open.ac.uk/2_stdyw/sub.htm). Research interests include interacting developments in law and technology and their wider effects on society, environmental decision making; and how systems thinking and environmental decision making can inform policy making in the conception, creation, deployment and regulation of information systems.I dabble in the use of the Internet and digital technologies in education, having been at the front line of the OU’s industrial-scale deployment of e-learning for many years. Author of 'Digital Decision Making: Back to the Future', published by Springer-Verlag in 2007. I wrote the OU's 'Law, the Internet and Society: Technology and the Future of Ideas' course, shortly to be made available openly again on OpenLearn (http://www.open.ac.uk/openlearn/home.php), as well as a variety of other materials on the environment and information and communications technologies; and I blog random thoughts on law, the Internet and society at http://b2fxxx.blogspot.com/
Before alighting in academia I spent nearly ten years in a variety of roles in industry.
