Practice IT Book 2 (3rd Edition)
Teacher Support Files

by Greg Bowden & Kerryn Maguire

The Teacher Support Files provide more detailed tutorials and worksheets in PDF format for the software activities in the Practice IT Book 2 (third edition) text book published by Cambridge University Press.

http://www.cambridge.edu.au/education/pit

The Teacher Support Files can be used separately from the Practice IT text book, but the book does provide projects at the end of each software module and a theory module on computer awareness and the social impacts of computer use.

The Support Files provide teachers with the choice of teaching from the book or giving the more detailed tutorials to students to work through at their own rate, or use a combination of the two approaches.

The price of the CD is $198 (inc GST) which provides schools with a licence to print as many copies of the tutorials as they want as they want for use within the school, to place the files on their school's network or Content Management Systems and to place the files on staff laptops. Use the ORDERING section if you wish to purchase the CD.

The software packages covered on the CD are Microsoft Word 2003, 2004, 2007 and 2008, Adobe Photoshop CS4 & CS3, Adobe Photoshop Elements 6, Adobe Flash CS4, CS3 and Flash 8, Adobe Illustrator CS4 & CS3, Microsoft Excel 2003, 2004, 2007 and 2008, Microsoft Access 2003 and 2007,FileMaker Pro 8 and 9, Adobe DreamWeaver CS4, CS3 abd 8, Adobe InDesign CS3 and Microsoft Publisher 2007.
