I was wondering if there was anyone who had some resources/tutorials for Game Maker. I have the Gamemakers Apprentice but I was after some more advanced game tutorials if anyone has any.<BR>

<BR>
I understand that there will be a scope and sequence developed for ICT (content and achievement standards). How it will appear in the curriculum documents is still under consideration. For example, in the current four study areas being developed, it is possible that in some instances ICT may actually be embedded in the content of these studies e.g. use ICT to represent data in graph form (in maths); in other instances the ICT content may be illustrated through the content elaborations (examples) in each of these studies. How the rest will be handled, I’m not certain. The good news is that at the moment ICT, like literacy and numeracy, are high on ACARA’s agenda for development.<BR>

Just wondering whether anyone has been invited to look at the proposed new<BR>
