Hi tech-ladies! I dont know if its possible, but I'm hearing repeatedly that there are study guides available for books we're using that I didnt even know existed, and I'm still not sure where to go to find said guides.
Would it be possible to have links (for study guides and any other helps) in the 36 week schedule and/or the detailed curriculum/booklist, right next to the book concerned like the purchase/online text options are? I'm not so new to AO but I'm still struggling to find things, and especially struggling with not knowing that some really helpful helps like this exist. It would be lovely if it were possible.

Alternately, a separate tab in the sidebar with all the study guides collected into one place?

I think a big redesign is in the works, and these are excellent suggestions.

Many times the guides are linked in the footnotes on the booklist. We do intend to keep improving this, though.

Thanks for letting me know, Amy. I don't think that I've seen a study guide for Ivanhoe as I've been planning Year 7.

Are the study guides listed on the forum under the resources for each year? If not, that might help too.

Sometimes they are, but not always. eg yr 4 has MHLW but not SoS.
