<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have just started to
panic!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2> I have just been handed a Year 11
ICT class for all of term 3 and have just finished going through the course
outline and realised that we do not have any programming software on the
school network. I am sure I would be able to purchase some but it would have
to be cheap.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone out there have a series of
tutorials that can help me teach myself and the kids
some programming.</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know that this is at late notice but I
have reading the year 12 list and the people on there have been extremely
generous.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in anticipation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Cheers</FONT></DIV>
