There are many fine example of educational design and quality learning resources outside of the traditional educational institutions. I'm not contending that these examples can be applied 'as is' directly to a higher education context merley that they illustrate what can be done with imagination (and money). The BBC's growing contribution is well known and now that their audio output is archived (usually for a week) there is scope for educational use there. Other impressive examples include, the Public Record Office's Pathways to the Past, and the Ordnance Survey's GIS section.
