He also continues to teach middle hand high school math, on a part time basis, in London, Ontario All eight programs share the same goal of presenting and teaching mathematical concepts through examples, interactive questions and tests. There are no games, or bells and whistles. It is straightforward teaching of mathematical concepts, with colourful graphics and examples, to enhance the learning experience. What is different from a text book is that this program is totally interactive with the learner.

Why Use Internet in the Classroom? NTTI Internet Utilization Strategies Advice From Master Teachers Internet Resources Why Use Internet in the Classroom? As an experienced teacher, you already have lessons that work well for the age you teach and the topics you cover. To evaluate whether using the Internet will enhance your classroom practice, consider these questions: 1. Would digital images help students understand a concept or topic? For example, could they use the Web to see images of black holes in space, historic photographs, artwork, or to look at satellite imaging or MRI scans? (On some sites, "objects" can be manipulated or rotated, so students can see them from different angles. Would this help students with a difficult concept?) 2. Does the lesson require collecting and analyzing data and building databases? 3. Does the lesson refer to time-related data, such as the changing stock market, the annual rainfall of a region, or the migration of whales? 4. Can the impact of the lesson be enhanced through students communicating via email with peers in other cities, or other cultures, or through contact with "experts" in a field?

Books Business Design Games ... Other New at the Think Different Store Habitat: iPod Desktop Cradle iTrip - Now Shipping iShare EarBud Splitter Adobe Classroom in a Book - Adobe GoLive CD-ROM included $40 (USA) Adobe Press Buy It @ Borders Review by Gary Coyne Although some people do take formal lessons to learn various programs, most users tend to learn a program by either hacking their way through and/or working with the manual for any given detail. Then, once the specific problem is solved, the manual goes down and the user continues to hack their way till the job gets done. This is because people typically are trying to "get the job done" and are not concerned with learning the nooks and crannies of a program. The Adobe Classroom in a Book - Adobe GoLive is intended to lead the reader through a series of lessons showing the major nooks and crannies of Adobe GoLive. Thus, relieved of the need to have a job that must get done (to learn the program), the reader can at their own pace learn the program through the lessons provided. The "Adobe Classroom in a Book" series are designated as "The official training workbook developed by the staff of Adobe." The concept is rather unique considering it’s a third-party book approach written by the first-party (software) creators. All lessons in the "Classroom in a Book" series are accompanied with lesson materials contained on the CD. Thus, the student has no concerns about materials for each lesson, graphics, files, text, and other required data for any lesson planthey are there. This is a classroom and there are questions at the end of each chapter (and the answers). Be advised that these should not be considered manuals for the software. There are no specific explanations for the menus, windows, or other attributes related to a given program. The book is written for both Mac & PC users, and all instructions are broken up by guidelines of "In Windows, the path is ..." and "In Mac, the path is ..."

Better Than Ever As these titles show, instructional software is improving By Russell Smith Here's good news: Instructional software is getting better. Today's top-selling CD-ROMs have a nice combination of advanced software techniques and comprehensive instructional content. It looks as though the producers have finally stopped simply converting programs from floppies to CD-ROMs without really taking advantage of larger storage capabilities. What's more, the new software is less expensive than the titles of five years ago and has been carefully designed for specific segments of the education market. Here are some of my top picks for early 1999, along with phone numbers and web addresses so you can get more information and prices for volume purchases. Elementary titles An Odyssey of Discovery: Earth Systems Pierian Spring Software . (800) 213-5054. Ages 9 and up. This social studies CD-ROM uses the same concept of interactive narrated modules that is so effective in Pierian's Geography of Earth and Mapping Concepts CD-ROMs. Overviews of key science concepts are followed by instruction and problem-solving activities. Students learn important details about the biosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, climate, and atmosphere, people and their environment, and natural resources. Teachers will be pleased with the essential elements covered in this program.

Tried-and-true software for teaching math By Russell Smith A few months ago, I began looking at the latest and greatest math software from Davidson, Sunburst, Edmark, and other companies. I tested hosts of math programs and got thoughtful input from students and educators in the 43 school districts I serve as an educational technology consultant. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of programs available both for little kids and for older students. A few programs stand head and shoulders above the rest. Most are cross-platform, and the prices vary widelysometimes for the very same program. Individual software programs can be quite expensive, but lab packs and site licenses can make per-unit prices drop dramatically. My advice: Take advantage of the 30-day preview copies offered by most companies. (Phone numbers and Internet addresses are provided in the list below.) There's usually no obligation to buy, even though you might have to fill out a purchase order for the companies' records. Use the 30 days to let your teachers examine the programs and discuss the pricing schemes so you get the best buys on the best products. And what are the best products? Here are the math software programs I recommend for students in primary, intermediate, and secondary schools:
