  Studyvibe

Picture
My name is Leonie McIlvenny and I have been an educator for  35+ years. Initially a primary school teacher, then teacher librarian,  I have taught in both primary and secondary schools in the public and private sector in Western Australia.
During my career I have been a curriculum consultant, online course developer, library consultant and ICT Project Manager for the Western Australian Education Department.  

Inquiry Learning has always been central to the work I do and with the introduction of digital technologies as a platform and mechanism for transformational learning I have focused my efforts in the past few years on exploring the affordances of a range of technologies to disrupt and challenge the way we deliver curriculum and inspire children to become self-directed learners.   

Developing digital resources to support teachers and students has also been a key focus for the past 8 years.  Studyvibe was the first in a series or web resources I have developed. Others include: 

*   The Research Safari  (designed for middle school students to develop their information literacy competencies)
*  The Knowledge Compass - a website that provides a range of questioning frameworks to support student research
*   The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Project (which explored how the UN SDGs can be used to develop an integrated unit of work that helps develop key transversal competencies).
The The Professional Teaching Portfolio Challenge (formerly the AITSL for TLs Challenge) which support teachers to develop a professional teaching portfolio that addresses the Australian Teaching Standards.
Inquiring About the World (an online scientific inquiry unit that is part of the Bachelor of Education Course at   Curtin University in Perth, Western Australia).
You can find out more about the resources, papers and presentations I have created here.

Studyvibe is a free resource.
It is self-funded by the creators and  generates no revenue from advertising.
​ Sponsorship allows Studyvibe to continue to be developed and available as a free resource.
