Practice IT Books 1 & 2 (3rd Edition)
Adobe CS5 Support Files

The Adobe CS5 Support Files provide more detailed tutorials and worksheets in PDF format using the Adobe CS5 suite (DreamWeaver, FireWorks, Flash, Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop) for the software activities in the Practice IT Books 1 & 2 (third edition) text books published by Cambridge University Press. The files are licenced so that schools can print as many copies as they want, they can be placed on school networks or content managements systems, and on staff or student laptops.

The tutorials 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).
