Teachers need resources

Quentin D’Souza in his blog teachinghacks.com has some good posts on professional development resources.
This post about Video on Demand for Professional Development leads the way to a media rich website packed with curriculum based information organized by discipline and grade. The program created for Ontario Teachers does not require registration so any teacher can benefit.

Every member of Ontario Teachers Federation is invited to access in-depth professional development workshops from leading educational producers. There are hundreds of hours of Professional Development streaming video content available here. The programs will be available from early November 2007 to November 30th,2008.

There is no registration to access the materials at this time, although the registration process will be simple enough for any educator to access the content.

One can only speculate why this information is not more widely known to educators in Ontario, or promoted by other organizations under its umbrella. So spread the word!
