I just returned from the first seminar of
Alta Scuola Politecnica on Lake Maggiore. It's too early to make a judgment on this experience, but the speakers (e.g. Francesco Lissoni, Trevor Pinch) had indeed made a good job in transforming the course title (

c) the flattr button here on the blog does not seem to work fine (at least now, at my end - I'm using Chromium on Ubuntu, and I'm even logged in in flattr in a different tab)
ciao
