When searching the Internet a good place to start is with a data base that has been compiled to meet your research needs. The "Education Channel" is one such data base. The Education Channel is an online service provided by the Department of Education and Training to assist students by providing access to thousands of web sites from Australia, and around the world. The Education Channel also provides links to other essential curriculum resources such as The ABC, The Age, Herald Sun etc.
