And doesn't Australia have so much to teach the rest of the world about teaching? :) Thanks for this, Sylvia – I linked to it on my 2.0 school club’s Moodle site.

It was through the work of Bill Kerr, Margaret Meijers and Tony Forster (independently) that finally, a body of easy-to-follow educational tutorials were written. This seems to be a common trend with Open Source and Freeware. Once educators find these gems, great, focused tutorials follow! Hi Sylvia,

There are many others who were not in the initial "gang of three" who have also contributed to the game making community. I would like to thank them for their support and enthusiasm.
