In March 2007 John Hartley convened a research symposium on digital literacy with financial assistance from the ARC Cultural Research Network and State Library of Queensland. International keynote speaker Sir Ken Robinson and 30 other speakers interacted with over 100 researchers. We presented the Federation Fellow program and held a special workshop on creative innovation and education for the State Minister for Education and the Arts, the Hon. Rod Welford. The proceedings of this event are available as audio files online and are being edited for publication in Media International Australia.
