If you have a Mac I recommend CSSEdit which allows you to analyse the
css that applies to each element on a page (locally or online) and
changes show immediately.

I think getting the firebug plug-in for firefox and playing around and
looking at other people's code has been most beneficial to me
recently.

As said before, alistapart.com is excellent. One of their recent
articles on web education mentioned another set of tutorials at
http://www.opera.com/company/education/curriculum/

They look like a good starting point.

The references are on the w3c site - but they are, well, references. A
good starting point for actually learning how to use css is A List
Apart:

http://alistapart.com/

You'll find lot of concrete examples, tips and tricks, and links to
other related material.
