Hi Peter,<br>
<br>
I also tell my students about tools such as Google Reader and Google Docs.<br>
<br>
Year 12 English students may find Google Alerts useful as they prepare for their Unit 3 Issues Oral.<br>
<br>
I have also used tools such as Bubbl.us with them and have seen kids using it themselves for other lessons.<br>
<br>
I'm a big fan (and a moderator)of the website <a href="http://Merspi.com.au" target="_blank">Merspi.com.au</a>, which is a VCE Q+A site based on the StackExchange template. That has a pretty good community and usually provides good help.<br>
<br>
If I think of any more I'll pass them on.<br>
<br>
I hope you find these useful!<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm giving a presentation next week on *Using technology as a study tool* to<br>
all of our VCE students.<br>
<br>
Some of the ideas I have for speaking about so far are the VCAA website for<br>
past exams, Teacher Tube, Wikispaces, Podcasts, Online Bookmarks<br>
(Delicious).<br>
<br>
I would love to find out about some other ideas that you guys might have or<br>
use.<br>
<br>
I expect there would be quite a lot of technology on smart phones that could<br>
be used really effectively but I'm unaware of it as I've only recently<br>
upgraded.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help.<br>
<br>
Peter Langham.<br>
