Having spent a lot of time in the new SA in the last four years, I thought you might find the doc and what we do of interest.
We are also working on free digital resource that follows the life of a girl called Alice. Its a combination of text, music and images that learners can contribute to themselves.

The web address is www.inanimatealice.com and my real address is alan.mills@ssatrust.org.uk.
