It seems that my topic for the outcome has aroused quite some interest and demand judging by the number of requests for my outcome. I'm flattered to say the least. 
Although it is not a direct plug for the RFDS its good to know that at least it has raised some awareness for their service and as they say, every little bit helps!
And yes, I am happy to provide copies of my OC if people ask me directly (email address below).
 
Due to start mine this Wednesday.
 
Go the 'Roos ! (1 point but thats all it takes to get 4....!)

Subject: Re: [Year 12 IT Apps] images for Rural Rescue Flights...


Beaten by another flickr fan! These oodles of images all have a creative commons license for non-commercial use and modification in your classroom. DL them from home if flickr is blocked from your gaze at school or drop me a line. It will take students a few moments to pen a kind thank you letter to an author that is easily forwarded on and another onto the cool crowd that invented the rich Creative Commons <http://creativecommons.org/>  system. :-)

     http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=RFDS&l=deriv&ct=0    and   http://www.flickr.com/search/?l=deriv&w=all&q=%22flying+doctor%22&m=text <http://www.flickr.com/search/?l=deriv&w=all&q=%2522flying+doctor%2522&m=text> 

Regards Roland 

PS: it .. the RFDS relies on donations <http://www.flyingdoctor.net/donation.htm>  to keep their aircraft fleet operational. Victoria has no requirement for the RFDS, so Victorian funds have traditionally gone to WA. 80% of RFDS cases are for indigenous patients. .. sorry, I couldn't resist the plug ;-)

	Kent, 
	
	I have some pics of craft and logos that I took during an idle afternoon last year at the RFDS base in Cairns. I'll post them to my Flickr for you under a creative commons licence to share and enjoy. In a former life in the 1980's, I was an RFDS volunteer project coordinator, raising funds for a neonatal transport system in Broome .. back then a digcam would have been very handy ;-)

		First, thanks for the feedback from those that have, its been great.
		On the images question, which a few have commented, it is my plan to source images such as the aircraft used by the Royal Flying Doctor Service or similar which, as I have mentioned, I am still looking for and no doubt will be satisfied soon (I hope). As for the logo, there are 2 options being considered, a teacher provided one or get the students to make one as a prelim task, or worst case scenario, find one suitable from the 'net'. 
		I havent made much contribution to the list in terms of work pieces so it makes me feel good to know that independent listers are looking at my contribution and taking it on face value.
		As promised, when I am happy with the images I get, will post them. My target is by about mid Satuday arvo of this week. 
		However, now that you know what images I desire, you as teachers out there can feel free to provide your own for your own needs if desired.
		What can I say, I've used this list many times for its resources and am more than happy that others get to use something that I have made -  sounds fair to me and that's what this list is about isn't it? 
		Cheers...Hic!

		PS have posted 'Rural Rescue Flights' on the VITTA site for those looking for it as my contribution to resources.

		We had trouble installing VB.net express too but my 17 year old student
		solved the problem!
		Then when he started saving files, we had another problem - the next 
		time he ran the program, VB.NET <http://vb.net/>  locked up. He solved that one too!
		He reckons by the end of the year he'll have solved all the problems so 
		I will have no trouble with it next year after he's gone. Is he an 
		optimist or what?
