EwanVid edit

Hi, I'm EwanVid (Ewan for short) and I live in Glasgow, Scotland, although my home town is Newburgh, Aberdeenshire.

I'm a Wikimedian in Residence at The University of Edinburgh. The project page for the residency is located here: Wikipedia:University of Edinburgh.

My example link edit

I am at a training session at the University of Edinburgh.

My example citation edit

I read an interesting article about Bletchley codebreaker, Rozanne Colchester, today.[1]

I also read an article about Helicobacter pylori.[2]

About me edit

  1. I have an MA in English (Literature & Language) & Modern History from University of Glasgow.
  2. A postgraduate diploma (PgDip) in Software Development from Glasgow Caledonian University.
  3. A PGDE in English & Media Teaching from University of Strathclyde.
  4. I also hold a TEFL certificate from I-to-I and have undertaken short courses in creative writing & screenwriting.

My example list edit

I enjoy the following activities:

  • Reading
  • Hiking
  • Swimming
  • Cycling
  • Watching football.

Things I like edit

I love travelling, music, history, cinema and literature, and this all feeds into my regular day-job of teaching of English & Media Studies. I'm interested in all kinds of stories (movies, books, plays) and create my own stories from time to time on my blogsite. Above all, I'm passionate about the idea of lifelong learning and broadening your horizons. Hence why I'm here and why I'm trying to learn how to play the mandolin (badly).
