Haven't noticed anyone mentioning LearnHigher yet which was, of course, designed with just this purpose in mind. Everything is on a Creative Commons licence and can be adapted, with acknowledgement. Covers pretty much all the areas covered by learning development services, research-informed and peer-evaluated - www.learnhigher.ac.uk.
(Our materials at Reading are also openly available and have been very widely used in other institutions, so you're also welcome to use them with usual acknowledgement - http://www.reading.ac.uk/internal/studyadvice/StudyResources/sta-studyresources.aspx.)

Subject: Updating resources
Hi all,
UWS is currently updating its resource bank. Instead of (please excuse cliché use) 'reinventing the wheel', I was wondering if any of you could recommend Creative Commons sites, which cover topics such as:
Critical thinking/writing/reading
Reflection/reflective writing
Academic writing, specifically lit reviews
Paraphrasing/synthesising
Research skills
Exam Technique
Thanks in advance,
Dickson.
