Edrolo Resources for VCE Students During Step Up and Through 2020

Edrolo is an online learning resource that has been used in a number of VCE subjects at our school, a practice that will continue in 2020.

What is Edrolo?

Edrolo provides interactive videos and exam questions for Year 11 and 12 students. Edrolo is currently used by over 800+ schools and 160,000+ students in Victoria.

For some subjects, your child will be required to purchase an Edrolo textbook as well. Edrolo’s textbooks do everything a traditional textbook does with the added benefit of several innovative features to better support teachers and students.

You can find out more about how Edrolo will support your child in their VCE in this short video: edrolo.com.au/parents/

How will our students and teachers use Edrolo?

We will use Edrolo as a teaching and learning tool to further enhance what our teachers and students are doing day-to-day.

Our teachers will be/have been provided with training on how to best utilise the resource, and will guide students to use Edrolo in a range of ways across the year, including:

holiday homework;
pre-class work;
post-class consolidation;
assessment preparation; and
exam revision.

We are actively communicating with students regarding how to access Edrolo and use it to consolidate their learning and for revision. Edrolo has been deemed an outstanding support resource, providing our students with the best opportunity to perform to their potential.

Departing Students

It is always hard to say goodbye, but there are some students leaving us at the end of this school year. If your child is one of them, all Library resources need to be returned or we will be charging the cost of their replacement titles.

Junior School Library

This week has been dominated by Senior School demands, and with Mr Nelson on Year 6 camp it has been strange to see so little action on the borrowing front. Please, if there are any queries in the next few weeks, particularly in relation to items still on loan which you believe are back, please email me: msimkin@hamiltoncollege.vic.edu.au
