Accessing CSIS

[Lyn]

CSIS is only for NSW schools. I have been trying for some time to find information which will enable me to purchase a hard copy for my science department. So far have not had much luck. Is there anyone in the NSW system who can give me information as to which specific site on the net I need to visit to get information on the purchase cost and perhaps an order form. I cannot access the intranet(?) site as it seems to be only available for schools within the NSW system. Would appreciate any assistance.

Hi Narelle,
I just tried it and the link works to the main site, but then the link from the site to the CSIS info doesn't work. There are numbers in the 'contact us' section that Lyn should be able to use to hopefully get somewhere. If you are not NSW DET then you can't use the DET websites.

Thanks narelle, I got the link and clicked into the CSIS intranet site but it only functions within NSW as far as I can tell. Mind you I got a little further this time in that instead of being denied access to the intranet site I looked at a blank screen with a cursor and the little egg timer for over ten minutes. So I've eaten lunch and played a few games of solitaire while the computer is thinking about linking me into viewing the CSIS Vols. 1 & 2, but it aint gonna happen. I had found this site before and I rang the NSWDET trying to find someone to help me but whichever person (possibly Glen Sawle) I was directed to was out at the time and then I think my life got pretty busy and this became something put on the backburner to come back to later. Mind you every time you guys refer to the CSIS I get a little envious that you have this information virtually at your fingertips. If we have a uniform science curriculum across Australia maybe we will all have the same access to the information you have in NSW.

To Lynda
I am Lab Ass. in Alice Aprings and also have been envious of this CSIS thing, and have assumed it was for the lucky NSW people. If you find any access to it I would be grateful if you passed it on to me.
