The following three resources, in my opinion, would provide effective tools to create and grow e-learning curriculum.
www.livebinders.com-
According to their website, they are already curating over one MILLION resources, which is pretty impressive in my book. This venue allows you to house virtually everything you would need to facilitate and organize needed information for your e-learning environment.
www.pearltrees.com-
Pearltrees has the ability to organize your curated information into "trees". You can then "snip off" parts or even the whole tree to share that with your colleagues, students, or anyone really. This program also allows you to collaborate with others, which is a great feature.
www.diigo.com-
There are some tools available in Diigo that would prove very helpful. You are able to "highlight" snippets rather than whole webpages. This makes it easier to save when you see it and utilize the information more quickly when it's time to compile the final unit or curriculum segments. Diigo's website also states that it assists in making sure links you save do not house any "dead ends" by archiving what you save when you save it. This tool also features collaboration for its users. Diigo is free, at least for now.
The link below features an article that I utilized as a springboard for researching this quest:
