I just love learning 360, the clips are current and engaging for the students. You can save clips to your favourites and there is no waiting for the Courrier truck! I also save the non A&E clips on to my memory stick so if the network is down I can still use the clip. I am looking for History teachers to swap clips with, give me an e-mail if interested.
