 * Richard Dykes' resources **

Richard Dykes from Pakuranga College has made his level 3 resources available under the creative commons licence, which means anyone can use them as long as it's not for commercial purposes and that he is acknowledged as the author. Also note that a small number of the images are from the internet and he doesn't necessarily the copyright for these. Richard also says:
 * My attempt here is to see if we can generate a collaborative document. If you see an error (there should be pretty few by now) or something that needs to be added/subtracted ... let me know. I can change the file and re-post.
 * I'm creating a digital only version of suggested answers as I work through the course.
 * Without making any guarantees, I intend to have 3.2 done by later this term (I start teaching it in week 8 or so) and will have 3.3. and 3.4 done by the end of the holidays. I've started 3.5 but won't have this until late term 2.
 * The PDF files are printer-ready, i.e. you can take them to a professional printer and get these printed. They all combine to make one workbook. I can provide a more photocopy-friendly printer if you want to photocopy in-house.
 * I use these workbooks to create a self-directed learning, that allows me to roam the class 'free-range', rather than direct what is happening each lesson. Overall it works , though students need some guidance to shift away from depending on me to turn up each period and tell them what to work on.
