Opera may be working on educational material of our own, through our
Developer relations and Dev.opera.com work. I'll take a look, but as
a quick first suggestion, it may not be the best idea to use a flash
menu in a standards site. I'm not sure if you've put much
accessibility work into it, but it is a core part of the site and
wont work on a number of devices where Adobe don't make flash
available or there are not enough resources for it to run.

Hello,
I am going to be giving a presentation on Web Standards to all
relevant professors at my university to help them catch up and get
up-to-date in what they are teaching the students. I am putting
together various resources for them, including a website (which can
be found at http://www.arwebdesign.net/webstandards), a slideshow
presentation (or possibly several), and any other resources they
might find useful. This will be on ongoing project, with plans for
me to do a new presentation at least once a semester and for me to
continually update the website with new information, resources, and
to send out a newsletter to them answering any questions they have
and what not. While this is being designed specifically for my
university, it is open to anyone who finds the information helpful.
Since this is the Web Standards group, I'd like to ask if some
members would be willing to look over the information I have
gathered and I am developing and would comment, critique, correct,
etc. on everything I have presented. The website is in it's very
early stages as I am still working on the actual content of the
site before I worry about the website itself. I have uploaded the
current plans for navigation and a skeletal outline of the
information I plan on presenting to http://www.arwebdesign.net/
webstandards/files/outline.pdf (also available in .odt). If you
could look over the topics I plan to cover and give any
recommendations of any topics or sub-topics you think I missed, I'd
be very grateful. This presentation is only an hour long, but all
of the information will be available online, so even topics I don't
get to cover they can view online. I will be updating the outline
continually throughout the next several days, as well as the
website, so check them out regularly if you are able to.
Once again, thanks for your help,
Christian Snodgrass
