TILT is also worth looking at for some examples of how teachers are using digital tools to create learning resources.

Teaching Channel

Another professional  development site isTeaching Channel which has just been launched in the USA. Although American it will become a useful  resource for Australian teachers as it is a video showcase of innovative and effective teaching practices. At this stage it is limited in that it only covers classes from Grade 3-8 but  it is only in its infancy and will keep developing,eventually covering  K-12 classes.If you access their website you will be able to subscribe to their video updates via email.
