updated tki for new NZ curriculum (english secondary section). 

From A Very Short List:  Based on a chilling contingency speech written for Richard Nixon titled "In the Event of Moon Disaster," this nostalgia-laced 15-minute radio broadcast, courtesy of American Public Media, tells its story entirely through the radio communication between Mission Control and the astronauts. Seconds after tuning in, you'll witness Apollo 11's crash landing on the moon. Buzz and Neil are okay, but the lunar module is destroyed, and the men are running out of oxygen. The story is haunting in its plausibility, and despite the fact that the astronauts sound less like test pilots from the Air Force than hipsters from Brooklyn, the quality writing and sound effects bring this macabre counterfactual deliciously close to reality.

wallwisher from today's educampnz2010. 

online photo editor - good to use with multiple student cameras

visual thesaurus - nice point of difference

lesson plans on the new HP site - not many yet, and mostly primary from the looks

digital footprint presentation by Dean Shareski recently presented at #BLC10 - excellent for teachers.

interesting site where you can "pin" a photo and tell the story

this one looks better than most (for secondary students) as they can add comments, photos, etc to the cards

excellent website on digital footprints. the kids vlogs are touching.  haven't looked at the younger kid stuff, but will definitely be sharing the teen vlogs with my kids next term as we work on our own video responses.

turn your rss feed into radio

good static images in these advertisements (though some are questionable for high school students - use caution)

Buy online from Shakespeare's Globe gift shop - teacher resources too

great site for teacher resources - i particularly like the game-type novel study activities.  reasonable prices (to me here in nz), and shipping.
