I have been busy this summer. Our district started to implement a project I put together that teaches technology and technology integration to teachers online. Now, there are products out there like InfoSource that do this but our program is outcome based and follows a method that hopefully will align with what teachers need to do to prepare curriculum, activities, etc. for their practice. Feel free to utilize any or all of these online lessons. You can even participate in our discussion boards. However, some lessons are designed specifically for our district's needs.

Excellent resources.
May I add one thing... some colour blind readers will not be able to actually read the list dur to the green and blue colour combination.
Cheers, John.
Thanks for sharing such a great resource. I'd like to create something similar for teachers in my system (to address some technologies specific to our schools). I've used blogger before, but what did you use to create the link pages (for the actual tutorials)? Thanks in advance.
@creagh_mpe Thanks for the compliment. For the actual pages I wrote them in Notepad using a combination of html and javascript. All tutorials come from various web2 resources on the web. The dropbox is powered by drop.io. And the discussion boards and contact pages are powered by widgets I found at widgetbox. Feel free to take and use any of these with your staff or grab the source code and edit it to tailor it for your own needs.
