Robert Burns - some websites

Here are some links to websites with information on the life of Robert Burns, and clips of his poetry and music:
The amazing SCRAN website has a huge amount of useful information as well as audio clips and downloadable podcasts. You have to log in to SCRAN either using your Glow password (if you know it...!) or you can request free access which just takes a couple of minutes. (It's well worth spending some time on SCRAN or booking on one of their introductory CPD courses to get used to all the features of this amazing site).
robertburns.org.uk - a website full of resources collected by the world's second oldest Burns club.
http://www.robertburns.org.uk/ - this website holds a vast repository of resources related to the life, times and works of Robert Burns, including resources specific to each of the sites associated with the life of Robert Burns. There is also a host of resources aimed at schools for different age-groups.
Education Scotland have an extensive site with resources on teaching using Scots language, as well as a specific area on the songs, poems and life of Robert Burns. There are audio files to listen to songs and poetry - really useful!
