Share my lesson

Social lesson sharing has grown over the last few years. There are a range of sites that encourage teaches to share successful lesson ideas and materials with their peers. The website Share My Lesson is one of those websites.  It allows teachers to upload their lessons and share them for free. This will be a great asset for teachers that live in a rural community and do not have the opportunity to interact with others teaching the same subject fit instance. Curriki is another great concept. Curriki is for teachers, professional educators, students, lifelong learners, and parents. The majority of the resources on the Curriki site fall under a Creative Commons license, so is open educational resource. Educational materials are provided by the Curriki community and are peer-reviewed for quality and adherence to standards, so although any one can contribute there are guidelines and standards. The Hwb is another great sharing website. Lots of the initial content was from NGFL Cymru, but the Hwb promises more. Essentially the  Hwb and Hwb+, aim to enable all learners and teachers to access online resources anywhere, at any time, from any device. It will also provide tools to help teachers and learners create and share their own resources, and to support collaboration. You should also check out and contribute to the collection of teaching resources shared by Smart and Promethean. Although they are mostly for the IWBS there are some excellent teaching and learning activities that can be adapted to suit your needs. Remember Twitter is also a great sharing tool too, ask for advice, retweat and share good finds. and not to forget the power of Video with Youtube, TeacherTube and Ted Talks.
