In this case, “ABC” stands for “Australian Broadcasting Corporation”, and “ABC Splash” is an educational website which offers video, audio, and games to support the Australian curriculum. Â However, this Beta site is open to anyone, and it has some fun activities that could easily be integrated into English-speaking classrooms around the world. Â It is designed for students in primary and secondary schools, and includes: Maths, Science, English, and History. Â One of the interactives that I enjoyed exploring was “World Wonders TV Show: Earthquake” in which the user organizes facts about earthquakes to create a television script.
It looks like this site will be providing a lot of resources for teachers in the future, and it also includes an informative blog. Â “ABC Splash” shows a lot of great potential.
