    Hi everyone, hope you had a good holiday if you're up there in the northern hemisphere.
    Does anyone use Twitter with their high school, college or university students? My students and I use the hashtag #historystudent and the program Tweetdeck to run Twitter and keep in touch out of class time. I've found it useful for enhancing student engagement and communication. If you'd like to bring your students onto the feed please do, we'd love to meet you. If you use other tools or Twitter differently I'm sure everyone would like to hear about your experiences.
    Thanks to everyone who shares those excellent links with the rest of us. Best wishes,
    David Hilton
    PS - Anyone know of any Head of Humanities or history teacher jobs going? I know someone who's interested...

    We're making the transition at the moment from SOSE in QLD to History & Geography. I'm making decisions about resources about the moment. What resources are others looking at? We like the Pearson stuff, although Nelson & Cambridge are also putting texts together. What choices are your schools making?
    Any other thoughts people have about National Curriculum implementation would be helpful too.
    Best wishes,
    David.
