Technology can provide the avenue for this exploration. Actually, it can provide the Information Super Highway. An adventurous spirit is the key prerequisite, along with a little help to take those first tentative steps in preparing a classroom lesson using the Internet.

Lesson Planning, Lesson Plan Formats and Lesson Plan Ideas
http://www.adprima.com/lesson.htm
This is among the most popular pages on the ADPRIMA web site, and for good reason. Good lesson plans do not ensure students will learn what is intended, but they certainly contribute to it. Think of a lesson plan as a way of communicating, and without doubt, effective communication skills are fundamental to all teaching. Lesson plans also help new or inexperienced teachers organize content, materials, and methods. When you are learning the craft of teaching, organizing your subject-matter content via lesson plans is fundamental. Like most skills, you'll get better at it the more you do it and think of ways of improving your planning and teaching based on feedback from your students, their parents, and other teachers. Developing your own lesson plans also helps you "own" the subject matter content you are teaching, and that is central to everything good teachers do
