.....take two ....

Hi Ros,

 Great Work !
Just one or two updates :
1. Forest Hill Secondary became just Forest Hill College around 1996 once we moved into the VET stuff
2. The web site address is in the .au domain www.edulists.com.au 

Many thanks for your support

  I had the idea that if every IT teacher mailed all staff with info re: edulists some of the non-IT lists might become more useful.

   

  So this is what I sent to the staff at Bentleigh for the Website of the Week!

   

  Kevork Krozian from Forest Hills Secondary College has implemented a website called "Edulists" where teachers from all subjects can share documents and resources. You can also subscribe and become a member of any one of a large number of mailing lists. The mailing lists are a wonderful place to go when you need help or advice on any number of topics.

   

  You can also see mail which has already been sent to the lists.

   

  Although the IT mailing lists are the 'busiest' I am sure if more 'non-IT' teachers (although aren't we all supposed to be IT teachers now?) subscribed and contributed to the lists they would become much more useful to everyone.

   

  Go to www.edulists.com and follow the tree of knowledge to your subject to view resources available.

  You can see the available mailing lists and subscribe by clicking on the "Subscribe" link on the left hand links bar.

   

  Feel free to use my text - I hope this is okay by you Kevork

  Cheers

  Ros
