We have recently been invited to draw up a proposal for future work, should funding be continued. More regional events are certainly planned, as is a Music 'strand' in the ALT-C conference in Bristol in 1999. The core of our work, of course, will continue to be to provide a support and information service to musicians and musicologists who are interested in using new learning technologies.
As a part of the review process, you may receive a questionnaire about the services we offer. We hope that, whatever you think of us, you will be able to help the review panel by answering their questions.

This bulkier-than-usual issue of CTImusic News features articles about the FDTL projects whose main focus is Music or which have a significant contribution from the Music Department where the project is based. I am sure that you will find the reports interesting because they show how all music departments will be able to benefit from the products, services and expertise that they are developing.
We have reports from:
University of Hertfordshire - The Hertfordshire Integrated Learning Project (HILP)
University of Huddersfield - Computer Assisted Learning for Musical Awareness (CALMA)
University of Leeds - Leeds University Music in Education iNitiative (LUMEN)
Royal College of Music - Professional Integration Project
University of Salford - Assessment Strategies for Popular Music Performance (pop)
University of Southanpton - Performance Teachers' Staff Development Project
University of Ulster - Peer Learning in Music (PLIM)
