Here, activities and instructions in the student book are used in tandem with templates and resources on the CD-ROM. Simple point-and-click operation and extensive teacher notes on the CD-ROM make the exercises easy to access and easy to use. Data, text and images from the CD-ROM can be transferred easily onto the school network or individual computers, thereby allowing whole class teaching or small group work using the exercises and instructions from the textbook. The ICT exercises are designed to use standard Office software including Word, Excel, Paint, PowerPoint, Publisher and the Internet. The CD-ROM will run best on a PC using Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT, Me or XP operating systems. The licence for the CD-ROM allows the software to be fully networked within the purchasing institution.
