Things that caught my attention
Information about health, health information, pedagogy, librarianship, decolonisation, COVID. And maybe other things.

Nobel Prize games
Discovered this through the Biotechniques Weekly Newsletter. There are some multimedia online games based on the discoveries that have been awarded Nobel Prizes. I have just spent too long on the Robert Koch and TB game - I did manage to stain the expectorant, look at under the microscope and see the bacteria, but very slowly. Your virtual guide is called Wilma, and she has a nice line in responses when you try to do something stupid like pick up the bench, or pour the expectorant down the sink. The games are at http://nobelprize.org/educational_games/ - the "Nobel Prize in..." links at the top of the screen link to more games too. They cover peace, literature and economics (world trade) as well as chemistry, physics, medicine - including malaria and DNA and the genetic code, as well as TB.
