The post on June 15th FUSE learning resource: CC sMash incorrectly stated that CC sMash had been launched. The post has been amended to state that the site will be released on August 18th, as advised by the project manager of FUSE education resources. I apologise for the confusion this may have caused.

FUSE learning resource: 1000Poppies
1000Poppies has been created by History Teachers’ Association of Victoria, Shrine of Remembrance, Melbourne, and DEECD. It is a place where students from around the world can share their feelings, experiences, and stories about war. Students are able to use historical research and interviews with key stakeholders of Remembrance Day. The site aims to increase student appreciation of war and their participation in acts of commemoration.
You can register as an individual on the site, or register a class (suitable for Levels 3-6 VELS and VCE history). Teachers, there is a teacher’s blog where you can get information on how to use 1000Poppies with your students. You are also able to share images and videos, and contribute to the discussion of groups around the world.
Visit the Poppy Field, where people plant their poppy and leave a message when registering to the site.
