Abstract

EdNA (Education Network Australia) is a highly regarded national collaborative model of networking for the Australian education and training community, and EdNA Online is the virtual network of learning environments and a gateway to educational and training resources and services. This online service, built on the principles of collaboration and distributed contribution and management of resources, is the vehicle and mechanism through which the EdNA national collaborative model operates.

Today, EdNA Online is a trusted, well-resourced information and knowledge base for educators and learners alike. Organised around Australian curriculum and competencies, it is gateway to freely available, web-based teaching and learning materials and communication tools, and is at the forefront of implementing the latest Internet standards such as XML for web services.
