Resources
I have a Pinterest Board dedicated to science that I've filled with science teaching resources and fun things for scientists in general. I have also started one specifically for teaching strategies (especially geared toward college classes). Visit these by clicking the links below:

The Society for Neuroscience webpage hosts a lot of information, resources for teaching, and outreach activities: Educational Resources in Neuroscience (ERIN) http://erin.sfn.org/ ; Society for Neuroscience http://www.sfn.org/; BrainFacts at SfN http://www.sfn.org/public-outreach/brainfacts-dot-org

There are also lots of great articles about how we learn and teaching strategies:
