Andrew Freeman's availability for paid or voluntary work, training, experience, and publications

I am currently retired. I am open to considering offers of short or long term paid or voluntary work, in Australia or overseas, which utilise my training, and experience.

My training has been in the areas of economics, accounting, legal studies, data processing, and educational administration and policy. I have worked in the areas of adult training, information technology, teaching, research and planning, evaluation, and general public administration. I have contributed to a range of national and international conferences and journals on themes related to educational innovation, long range planning (more particularly, futures research), and technological change.

Abbreviated curriculum vitae

More details on myself are included in my abbreviated curriculum vitae.

Thesis dealing with network futures

My Master of Education minor thesis at Melbourne University (completed in 1983), is around 300,000 bytes in length, and is titled:
'The Network Nation: The relevance of this for possible educational and general public administrative structures and strategies in the 1980's and 90's.'.

This thesis was published by the ERIC Clearinghouse on Information Resources, Syracuse University, New York, USA (in January 1985 - ERIC document reference: ED247936). ERIC documents are available from many major University libraries, throughout the world.

The Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) site includes details on the ERIC service, and a search tool to assist with the location of ERIC documents. Many of the documents searchable via that tool can be read in a digital form via a link included in the search results.

Search engines and related technologies

Just as some people find model steam trains fascinating, I have an on-going interest in World Wide Web (WWW) search engines, and related technologies. :-)

Given my frugality (;->), only services which are either completely free, or provide a good level of basic service at no cost, are listed below.

Acronym Finder

Acronym Finder is a useful tool for finding the meaning of acronyms - for example, it tells you the meaning of 'CVSIG' is 'Computers and Vegetarianism Special Interest Group'. It allows for users to add new acronyms.

Google

Google uses innovative techniques to determine which Web pages are generally well regarded. This is the search engine that I most commonly use. It includes a Newsgroup search option.

Search Engine Watch

Search Engine Watch is a useful site, if you want to learn all about search engines.

Yahoo

Yahoo was one of the first search engines, and includes a wide range of additional services.
