    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.

    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!

    Oops! Sorry about the typo in the url - should have been www.asiaeducation.edu.au

    Merryn, if you go to your My Library page, you should see this bookmark. Click edit and then you should be able to fix up the typo in the URL. 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.

    Drama in education is the use of drama techniques to support learning in the classroom. Drama in education was at first called creative dramatics and the founder of the field was Winifred Ward. By creative dramatics she meant a classroom teaching method that emphasizes self-expression, training in spoken English and literature appreciation.
