<DIV dir=3Dltr><FONT face=3DArial color=3D#000000 size=3D2>Hi Kent (and all=
others). This is the first time for me too. I am using a book called "Visua=
l Basic for Education" by Adrian Janson. (it's subtitle - a step by step app=
roach to Visual basic specially tailored for the classroom). It breaks down=
the programming into easy chunks and has a great introductory piece on the=
tools of VB. My students were challenged by turning the computer on...and a=
re finding it ok.</FONT></DIV>=0A=

<P><FONT size=3D2>Thanks Adrian -- this sounds very promising, and I look fo=
rward to<BR>further cooperation on our shared goals in IT training (and in<B=
R>tackling Kevork's interesting questions).<BR><BR>-Steven<BR><BR>P.S. Yes m=
y son loves the year 10 game design elective he's doing with you!<BR><BR>>=
; Complements on a very thoughtful and detailed response! I am all for=
<BR>> sitting down and having a go at tackling some of these issues. =
; Actually, I<BR>> think you would be quite pleased with the new Software=
Development 3/4 VCE<BR>> course as the emphasis has moved back from the=
SDLC to programming and<BR>> software development (as many of us feel it=
should be).<BR>><BR>> I do think that 'we' (being the tertiary sectio=
n and the secondary sector)<BR>> should be talking more and collaborating=
much more - but in many ways, you<BR>> and I are the converted ones, hav=
ing spoken about this before!<BR>><BR>> Putting my VITTA hat on for a=
moment - thanks for the acknowledgement of the<BR>> work that we are doi=
ng in terms of IT teacher PD - and yes, more can<BR>> certainly be done!&=
nbsp; I think that ICT week is shaping up really well<BR>> (especially th=
e EXPO) and hopefully, many teachers bring their students<BR>> along!&nbs=
p; Would love to hear what ideas you have in terms of PD - and any ways<BR>&=
gt; you think Melb.Uni might be able to help!<BR>><BR>> Cheers,<BR>>=
; Adrian<BR>><BR>> PS: Hopefully the feedback on IT teachers you are g=
etting from your own<BR>> family members has been nothing but positive! ;=
