You should consider Quest Atlantis   http://www.questatlantis.org
I am the International liaison for this free program which involves
games, curriculum activity, 3D design and building in a virtual world.
It is is designed and managed by a team at Indiana University and the
only 'cost' for entry is the teachers' time do the 4 90 minute sessions
of online training (one each week).
We have a new PD program for Aus and NZ time zones about to start
Thursday 29th May at 7pm NZ and 5pm Sydney. Teachers are invited to sign
up with a buddy (2 teachers from a school) and we take you through the
use of the program and help you with any technical issues, supply
resources and support you over your class time in QA.

Angela Cooke in Tasmania is already using QA in her online program - and
there are a number of teachers on this list who have trained and I am
sure can attest to the value of QA.

So Nathan and anyone else if you are interested please contact me and I
will make a place for you in the next PD session.

Bronwyn
