If you have high school aged children or are interested in returning to study yourself, you might be interested in this site called The ME Project, by Edith Cowan University (ECU) themeproject.com.au
It looks at what a student is interested in and provides information on courses they might like.

The child (or adult) puts up a photo showing their stuff…could be in their own room, another room or any other place they want to show. They can tag their own stuff to show what they are interested in or the Uni can do the tagging for them based on what’s in the photo.
I was fortunate to work on this totally new approach to providing information last year.
As with any brand new idea we had to think a bit creatively to work out how best to test it. The end result was the kids and adults loved it, so I am very pleased to see it get to market, not all new products or ideas make it, even if they test well.
I do ponder what the University might have made of the posters I had on my wall way back then? A mixture of Alice Cooper, Ian Drury, Sherbet and the beach would probably have ended up with music I guess…that or an appointment with a counsellor maybe.
