Melbourne venue for author talks, discussions on wide range of topics to do with books

Indeed, a great place!

One of the resources we (my TL hat on now) use from Wheeler Centre is for VCE English students - "Texts in the City" sessions - videos from past years are online. Thanks for sharing. I've marked this assignment as complete on Lore.

Ergo is a site containing a great deal of information about Victorian history, including digitised primary resources. It also has tips on research skills and essay writing.

Seems obvious but I find this an easy to use research tool for a variety of ages.

Improve your research, essay writing and study skills, explore Victoria's history, and access over 700 original primary sources you can use in your assignments.

Allows user to drag items from social networking sites into their own "story" and write their own comments.

I think this would be great to use when looking at "issues".

Agreed! Also wonderful for conferences and current events. Thanks for posting the link. I've marked the Diigo Assignment as complete for you

This YouTube channel has an abundant choice of resources for the VCE student. It was established by a young man who felt there was a need to provide current and relevant information about research skills, study techniques, a guide to write the perfect English essay and especially how to fine tune a search using Google. Each topic is delivered in easy speak and lasts for less than four minutes. I would highly recommend this site for students who are looking for quick sound bytes on surviving VCE.

Thanks for posting this link, Michelle. I've marked the Diigo Assignment as complete for you.
