SubjectLooking for help on a High School VPinball course. Reply to this message

I am now in the process of using Visual Pinball as the cornerstone to an online public high school course for the homeschoolers and district students. I have not run this one by Randy Davis yet, I will though very soon. If anyone knows of sites relating to the physics/history of pinball or sites that outline VB script I would love to know. Also if anyone is looking to build a VPinball tutorial I would love to help run through it. I have a lot right now on this course and could launch it. I am also hoping to leave it out there for all to enjoy, just not for credit though of course. Kind of a new thing. The students eat this stuff up and it is hard to keep up with them. This is great, the students get science, history, culture, image editing, object oriented programming concepts, troubleshooting, logic, math, and it just keeps on going. If only my boss would see that. Anyway, any help is appreciated. rubysped@hotmail.com
