Term 2 - Welcome Back

Hi everybody - hope you had a nice break and enjoyed Easter.

The library was reasonably quiet (compared to term time) but we still had 112 patrons during the 8 days we were open. These patrons consisted of 27 Mandurah Senior College students and staff, 22 Challenger TAFE students and staff, 55 Murdoch students and staff and 8 students from other Tertiary organisations.

Teaching and Learning Federation

Did you know that DET (Dept of Education and Training) gives all teachers access to electronic resources comprising resources from the Learning Federation, WestOne and CMIS recommended resources?

These are available directly from a portal on the DET Intranet.
http://intranet.det.wa.edu.au/resources/K12Resources/k-12-resources.asp

The types of resources include:
1. Interactive computer-based learning objects
2. Images, video and audio clips from national collections
3. Graphic organisers and tools to engage student thinking
4. Curriculum-related websites, print and other resources


These resources include specific items for Kindergarten to Yr 12 but there are also great introductory resources for many subjects. Schools and colleges must download the digital resource from the Intranet and network it or download to a PC for it to be utilised.

We would like to have any items that you choose loaded onto ClickView. However you may also decide to download them yourselves and have them accessed via the intranet.

Please advise us in the library if you want any title/s downloaded.
