Hi Merryn, It looks like the last letter of the url (web address) is missing on the link. Are you able to hop back into Diigo and fix it up? I'm think many people will find this site of great use especially as the implementation date of the Nat'l Curriculum creeps closer. Drop us an email when you've made the edit, thanks!
Hi Merryn,
Not sure what's happening at your end, I can see your bookmark fine. In situations like yours, I try refresh then jump out of the site and browser then back in just to see if it clears things. Hope that helps.
Trove is a discovery experience focused on Australia and Australians. It supplements what search engines provide. If you are researching in the fields of the social sciences, literature, local or family history, or need inspiration for your school assignment, then this is the tool for you. It is the most amazing FREE site and I use it to find so many things "Australian".
This is a fully searchable database of all the 780 First Fleet convicts via a number of search options. Searching can be done by name, ship or by crime. The data can be downloaded free of charge provided it is for non-commercial use. This is a great way to introduce students to real data based on real people. There are many opportunities to introduce children to the language of the day through information written in the database based on the occupations listed for some of the convicts.
I can spend hours on this site. Beautiful photography, interesting information, and great search functionality - everything an online journal could aspire to be.
