Top 10 on the Web - Secondary Homework
Top Ten on the Web is a quick-fire run down of the 10 best websites for helping with homework - chosen by Greensward College in Essex.
Ben Moor introduces the sites with comments from teachers at Greensward College, and sneak previews of the contents.
It was difficult to decide on their Top Ten but Jamie Benson, a teacher at Greensward College, says of their number one, 'If they actually read this on a website, ironically they're probably more likely to believe it from that, than they are from the teachers' mouths.'
So what is their all time favourite? Will your favourite site be in their top ten?

Web addresses7 January 2008 - 17:07In some programmes one sees web address that could be interesting. Going on Teachers TV site to find such sites, is
no easy matter. Is it not possible,such a place could be created, so one can copy and paste this information. If there is such a place - I have "yet" to find it.

Re : Try the resources link next to video player8 January 2008 - 16:37Hello Allan,
Every programme on the Teachers TV website has a Resources link to the right of the video player - these will always contain weblinks relating to the programme, supplied by the producers, and often other materials. For these 'Top Ten' programmes the resources section contains links to each of the websites mentioned. Hope that helps.
Regards,
Luke Harvey, Teachers TV Community Producer
