You're most welcome to use mine. I am writing them as I go and have  
uploaded the first couple to the VITTA site:

Let me know if you're unable to access them and I'll give you an  
alternative location.

I will post the next ones as I write them.

Personally I don't think the kids will have much trouble with the  
software side of things for unit 3. It's all the other  
rubbish^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hstuff ;-) the study design requires of them  
(via outcome 4's task and the exam) that will make life difficult for  
everyone. Memorizing esoteric jargon not used in the real world, oh  
joy. Oh and there's the visualisation of thinking strategies... my  
kids all thought they'd gone back to primary school when I told them  
they had to do that!
