<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hello folks,<br>
<br>
I'm a long time subscriber/reader of this mailing list and first time poster.<br>
<br>
I wanted to let you all know about a new e-learning website which I have
launched for VCE students called Merspi. It's a place where students and
educators can ask VCE-related questions and have them answered by other members
of the community. It's very Web 2.0 and it's a bit like Wikipedia, Digg and
Blackboard all rolled into one.<br>
<br>
Those of you interested in e-Learning or involved with teaching VCE students
should check out the website: <a href="http://merspi.com" target="_blank">http://merspi.com</a><br>
<br>
The community is still in the very early days (<i>we've been up and running for
less than a month</i>) so we'd be really grateful to any teachers who check out
the site and help pass it on to students who might be interested in using it.
Deer Park Secondary College are currently including the resource as part of
their VCE induction program.<br>
<br>
The hope is that if it takes off, it could really provide a lot of value to
students: especially those who are potentially unable to afford private
tutoring or private schooling.<br>
<br>
We're extremely happy to hear any feedback from the teacher community and
please feel free to pass the website on to your anyone you think who may be
interested.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
Kindest Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
