Are you teaching in a remote location and looking for teaching resources that actually suit your setting?
You’re not alone—and you’re in the right place.
Every day, educators across Australia search for remote teaching resources hoping to find something practical, easy to use, and relevant to the challenges they face:
-
Teaching in small, multi-age classrooms
-
Managing limited access to technology
-
Planning without a local team to collaborate with
-
Supporting student learning in diverse, often isolated environments
You’re not looking for more theory or generic printables.
You’re looking for teaching resources that help you plan faster, teach better, and grow professionally—no matter how far you are from the nearest PD workshop or school network.
That’s what this blog is here to give you.
This isn’t a list of links.
It’s a place to find ready-to-use digital lessons, supportive planning tools, and a practical teaching system built for your reality as a remote educator.
What Makes These Remote Teaching Resources Different?
When you're working remotely, resources need to do more than tick curriculum boxes. They need to work in your specific conditions—even with limited tech, mixed age groups, and solo planning time.
Inside the ICT in Education Teacher Academy, you’ll find:
-
Curriculum-aligned lesson plans made for early childhood and primary
-
Activities that work with low-tech or offline setups
-
Editable planning templates that help reduce workload
-
A digital workbook that guides you from idea to implementation
-
Professional learning tools to track your growth over time
These aren’t just teaching materials. They’re complete learning experiences, backed by reflection tools, observation checklists, and professional development guidance.
If you’ve ever downloaded a lesson but had to rewrite half of it to make it work in your setting, this membership was made for you.
Practical Teaching Tools That Work With What You’ve Got
Teaching in a remote or rural area often means stretching what you have.
-
One device for the whole class?
-
No internet for half the week?
-
Students ranging from Foundation to Year 2 in the same room?
You’re already adjusting every day. The lesson plans inside the membership adjust with you.
Here’s what you can do with even the most basic setup:
Available Equipment | Lesson Plan Example | What You’ll Teach |
---|---|---|
1 Bee-Bot + markers | Drawing with Programmable Toys | Coding + creative design |
1 tablet or phone | Outdoor Digital Storytelling | Language + digital literacy |
A few laminated QR codes | QR Code Nature Hunt | Inquiry + problem-solving |
Each lesson includes:
-
EYLF or ACARA outcome links
-
ICT levels of differentiation (basic to advanced)
-
Built-in options for adapting to your teaching environment
No extra prep, no reinventing—just flexible, effective learning experiences.
You Might Be Teaching Alone, But You Don’t Have to Plan Alone
Many remote educators wear multiple hats—teacher, planner, leader, IT support, assessor. That’s a lot to carry.
You might not have a colleague down the hall to plan with.
You might not be part of a professional learning network.
And you might not feel confident asking, “Am I doing this right?”
That’s why this membership includes an online educator community just for you.
You’ll be able to:
-
Ask for help when you’re stuck
-
Get feedback on lesson ideas
-
See how others are adapting the same plans in their classrooms
-
Feel part of something bigger—even if you're hundreds of kilometres away
When you’re planning and teaching in isolation, being able to connect with others can completely change how you experience your work.
A Week in the Life with Resources That Support You
Let’s put it all together.
Here’s how one week might look when you’re using the remote teaching resources inside the membership:
Monday:
You browse the digital library and download a lesson plan on Digital Nature Walks. You open the planning template and align it with your learning goals.
Tuesday:
Students use tablets to photograph leaves and textures outside. They narrate what they see using a simple storytelling app.
Wednesday:
You post in the community asking how others have extended this lesson. You get two quick replies with ideas for adding QR codes and pattern drawing.
Thursday:
You implement a new twist on the activity, based on the feedback. You track student learning using the observation checklist included with the lesson.
Friday:
You reflect using the workbook prompts and add evidence to children’s digital portfolios. The plan for next week? Already half done.
Teaching Remotely Isn’t Just a Challenge—It’s an Opportunity
When you work in a remote area, you become incredibly resourceful. You adapt constantly. You learn quickly. You innovate without even realising it.

It supports you in:
-
Applying ICT strategies at your own pace
-
Tracking your growth using the TPACK radar chart
-
Planning lessons aligned to curriculum goals
-
Building a portfolio of evidence for accreditation or reviews

Growing professionally with clarity and purpose
It’s not just a resource hub. It’s a system that grows with you.
