7 Resources provided to students through faculty & subject websites. Teacher created, built up over a number of years. The websites contain: written Information videos worksheets lesson plans presentations interactive activities Generally not static links, but embedded content. http://science.killester.vic.edu.au

8 So students manage their own laptops? Backups – yes Software updates – yes

9 But don’t they install games? Download videos? Music? Yes, and yes, and yes.
