You can download from the J drive a booklet for the web design topic. If you've forgotten to bring your USB email me for a copy. It’s a large attachment so hopefully it will get through by email. I can't post a public link to it though because of copyright licenses etc.

There is more help available from:

You should also check out the free google sites you can set up with our SBCSchool.com Google Apps using your normal school login / password – then using their sitebuilder software:
