About

DTSource.org was set up with one goal in mind, to work collaboratively to create great resources for use by pupils and teachers.

The website is not for profit and the teaching resources will always be free.

It's a community owned by the team an not any one individual. People can come and go from the team but the content will alway be available, so once you've uploaded content, everyone in the team becomes the equal owner!

The website/content can be embedded in your VLE. No need to update. The resources update seamlessly, with no installations or downloads.

This website wouldn't be where it is today without some of contributors, to which we thank for their continued support.

Below is some information about the originators of the site. If you wish to make yourself known to the DTsource community, please provide a little information about yourself and detail favourite piece of tech and we'll include a short biography.
