Gooru - 0 views

  •  
    Gooru is a new service (still carrying the Alpha label) that aims to provide teachers and students with an extensive collection of videos, interactive displays, documents, diagrams, and quizzes for learning about topics in math and science.
  •  
    A great Search Engine site, but with more features such as a Library of resource organised by subject area. Unfortunately very U.S. based, but for some subjects that wouldn't matter.

    The science dept at school has just started experimenting with creating units on gooru - so far they are impressed! Thanks for sharing the link. I've marked this assignment as complete on Lore for you.

Home - Trove - 5 views

  •  
    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".

    Loved that showing this to my students meant I could show them that their small town of Kyabram is mentioned in National Library sources.

The Khan Academy - 1 views

  •  
    The Khan Academy has approximately 3,500 videos all free to use. Fabulous for Science and Mathematics with some other subjects catered for as well.
  •  
    The Khan Academy has generated a lot of discussion in education. The academy supplies a wealth of resources However... do these resources contribute to good teaching and learning?
