   The link for Story-Based Inquiry is incorrect. Goes to the Global Casebook instead.

   Thanks. Great info. Couple of links seem to be off: Global Casebook is repeated twice and no link to Story based enquiry. Similarly with first part of Digital Media Handbook. Unless it’s my PC. Cheers

   You might want to warn people that PDFs don’t play very well on the e-Ink Kindles. I’ve got a 3G and I’ve given up on PDFs. I suspect they’re better on the Fire, but I don’t have one of those.

      I don’t mind PDFs on e-Ink – although I do switch to landscape mode when reading them. Will add something though.

         Amazon can convert the PDF for you to kindle format – just email the PDF to your kindle with ‘convert’ in the subject line. It’s really easy and most PDFs convert very well. 🙂

         Thanks for reminding me of that Leonie!

         I’ve tried converting PDFs and most of them don’t convert well at all.

   Thanks Paul for taking the time to put this list together. I’m interested in reading ‘Testing Treatments’, but I must say – It’s been a while I see a book written by 4 authors. By the way, http://ebookjunkie.com has a lot of great ebooks for free in PDF format. Just in case anyone wants to do more reading.
