[English] Fwd: Launch of Australian Screen Online

[Corby, Patricia R]

I am on a working party with the Learning Fed folk looking at how digital resources are used in schools and what things we as teachers, find the most useful, likewise what we wish was available and at this stage isn't! 
 
At a meeting in May we were introduced to the australianscreenonline materials and spoke with their reps who are working jointly with the TLF on the project. I found it wonderful to explore what I think is a very rich resource and I would urge colleagues to do likewise, it was a personally enriching exploration as much as one I engaged in in search of learning materials for students.
 
May I heartily endorse this website and all it contains.

Australia's audiovisual heritage online

The Australian Screen Online website <http://australianscreen.com.au/> was launched this week in Sydney, giving the general public access to all of Australia's cinematic history with over 500 film and television programs represented on the site.

On the site you can view clips from Australian feature films, documentaries, TV programs, shorts, home movies, newsreels, advertisements, other historical footage, and sponsored films produced over the last 100 years, with curators' notes and other information about each title.

The site currently contains 1,471 clips from 563 film and television titles, and is constantly being added to.

Teachers and students are encouraged to use the website as a learning resource and to visit Australian Screen Online's education page <http://australianscreen.com.au/education/> for educational content provided by The Le at rning Federation. <http://www.thelearningfederation.edu.au/tlf2/>

Curriculum Corporation is a key partner in the development of the Australian Screen Online website.
