[English] FW: [Year 12 IT Apps] Using technology as a study tool

[Jenny Gilbert]

Thankyou Kevork

 

I would add Diigo to the list - for both students and teachers. Live Binders
has become more useful too.

Zotero

Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] is a free, easy-to-use tool to help you collect,
organize, cite, and share your research sources.

Firefox add on but since they have developed word processor plugins it can
also be used for non web based research

Hi Peter,

I also tell my students about tools such as Google Reader and Google Docs.

Year 12 English students may find Google Alerts useful as they prepare for
their Unit 3 Issues Oral.

I have also used tools such as Bubbl.us with them and have seen kids using
it themselves for other lessons.

I'm a big fan (and a moderator)of the website Merspi.com.au, which is a VCE
Q+A site based on the StackExchange template. That has a pretty good
community and usually provides good help.

If I think of any more I'll pass them on.

I hope you find these useful!

Hi,

I'm giving a presentation next week on *Using technology as a study tool* to
all of our VCE students.

Some of the ideas I have for speaking about so far are the VCAA website for
past exams, Teacher Tube, Wikispaces, Podcasts, Online Bookmarks
(Delicious).

I would love to find out about some other ideas that you guys might have or
use.

I expect there would be quite a lot of technology on smart phones that could
be used really effectively but I'm unaware of it as I've only recently
upgraded.

Thanks for your help.

Peter Langham.
