I’ve been blogging a bit more than I planned to these last few weeks, but want to draw readers attention to this video of Krisztina Holly, Vice Provost for Innovation at the University of Southern California, speaking about the way digital scholarship will change university research. It’s doing the rounds of academic Twitter streams and is associated with the recent buzz over an article on open access review policies that appeared on the front page of the New York Times on August 24th.

Skills Framework for the Information Age
People involved in the digital humanities will presumably be interested in this, but it will probably be of interest to anyone involved in developing university courses in situations where proof of alignment to the ‘real world’ is required. I’m referring to the UK’s Skills Framework for the Information Age (SFIA).
