Research Plan

My initial concept is to create a game / simulation based on the events at Gallipoli in 1915. There is many resources around and it is such an important event in our national history. An increasing amount of young people are travelling to Gallipoli for Anzac day as a renewed interest grows. I was fortunate enough to travel to Gallipoli when I was twenty, and still remember the impact the visit had. It is a very sombre place. New Zealand and Australia must be one of the very few countries in the world to have such an immense tragedy as a national day! I finally feel that I am making progress on the research plan. I am now working out the details of the research project and am carefully looking at some History achievement standards and internet resources from Australia and New Zealand for teachers... Time to get back into it...

Changing focus

It has been really interesting reading your blog entries seeing how your question is changing and refining.  Before starting on this journey I never thought that the framing of the question would be so difficult... or so important :-)
