Given all the challenges involved in preparing them, the learning materials come to us invested with hours of many people’s hard work, deep consideration, and much love. This must be respected.

The authors have taken on a great challenge. They have wrestled with questions (and doubts) about their roles as teachers, they have come to grips with perhaps unfamiliar tools, and they’ve agonised long and hard.
