"I got started using the tutorial on powershellpro.

My only complaints are:

The navigation is hard to use (list of links on the right hand side)
There are a few errors and typos throughout. Although if you're an astute reader, you'll notice right away.

The teaching techniques I found useful were when they show how to do a task in both PowerShell and through regular Windows GUI (like MMC) and when they describe real-world uses for some of the scripts or commands."

"You may read free e-book PowerShell Succinctly:

Description
PowerShell Succinctly highlights some of the PowerShell programming
model’s many benefits, specifically for .NET developers and system
administrators. Author Rui Machado guides readers through time-saving
methods that simplify code testing by eliminating the need to create a
new application in Visual Studio. Also included are tips for using
additional services, such as PowerGui, WMI, and SQL Server, to get the
most out of PowerShell. Even if you don’t already use scripting
languages to manage your machines, PowerShell Succinctly will show you
just how easy it is to automate activities, work with databases, and
interact with a variety of file types with this useful model.
