= eLearning with Karen Kearney = = = http://mc-great-reads.wikispaces.com/ - This Wiki has been set up in 2012 to support our Wider Reading program at Marcellin College.

@http://mclibrary11.wordpress.com/ - This Library blog was set up in 2011 to support, and promote, the Marcellin College Library. Students are encouraged to promote books they have enjoyed by writing reviews, or presenting information using other Web 2.0 tools such as Glogster.

@http://novelofchoice11.wordpress.com/ - This blog was set up during the time when my Year 7 English class was reading their "Novel of Choice". I placed different book trailers, questions and information here so they could respond as they were reading, and to promote interest in other book choices.

http://7-9rememberthetitans.wikispaces.com/ - A differentiated task was developed by me for use within the Year 7 English program. Students were expected to gather background information to share before we watched the movie "Remember the Titans".

http://vce-jersey-boys.wikispaces.com/ - A wiki to support the 2010 VCE study of //Jersey Boys - The Story of Frankie Valli and the Four Season//. The wiki provides many resources to enhance student understanding of this production and looks at costume, lighting and set design, among other production aspects.
