education

I'm trying to set-up a site that will allow students that are enrolled in our different College programs (i.e. IT, Media Design, Pharmacy Technician, etc.) to have access to their curriculum (meaning web links, pdfs, docs, xls, etc.) through a web interface. We are open-entry/open-exit so we have students coming and going all of the time. We would like to keep a close eye on the students when the withdraw from the class to make sure that their access is taken away from the content for that class.

Has anybody got any good resources for Drupal squirrelled away in their favorites folder?

I find that whenever I search for a Drupal topic, I see 4million websites out there with the Drupal API reference - well done, guys. We only need one, and it's at Drupal.org. All they've done is clutter up the results, so actually finding examples of how to use the more obscure regions of Drupal is very tricky. Searching Drupal itself is rarely helpful, as their website is so disorganised; I'm sure I saw an example of something once, but it disappeared before I had a chance to bookmark it!
