It is great to see someone making a good effort to utilize Moderator in a real and useful manner. I do have hope for improvements and potential of Moderator as it matures. More applications and uses such as this will likely drive that forward. Nice. This is an excellent idea and application of Google Moderator.

I'm not sure that it is possible to design curriculum resources by `committee', so to speak, but I do think we can take ideas that people share and use them as the `spark' that we adapt for our own particular circumstances. One of the very best `curriculum making' projects I've ever been involved in started with input from me in Sheffield (and my colleague Paula in Kent) and involved teachers developing their own ideas linked to `making geography come alive', fieldwork and ESD. We had films made (Little Red Riding Hood - Year 2) and Photostory3 videos about the environment + lots of other great ideas.
