Resources

This page contains tips and links to various resources about the GCA curriculum. Links range from software downloads to learning videos about different subjects to pages with more information about a certain subject.

Sometimes, the links and/or other resources will reflect another subject - such as Math or Social Studies - but they are indirectly related to technology. There are also links to online dictionaries and hardware retailers which are known to have competitive prices.

Please send me an e-mail with links you think that should be on this page. Click here.

The page and the links may be updated and things re-arranged as links and categories come to mind. Sorry...
