How about having students generate the list i.e. find a bunch of resources on a particular topic (Although sign-on via FBook/Twitter might be a problem). They can then vote for the resources they find most helpful, thereby helping the next bunch of students that come along to that topic

How about perhaps getting students to adapt another play in this way? A whole year group maybe could make some inroads? Re-organising and rethinking content in this way would surely help with understanding and might entice in some of those reluctant Shakespeare-ophobes.
