Does the curriculum teach students to use technology?
Yes, The student CD-ROM for each module contains the complete media section from the teacher CD-ROM, with the databases, videos, images, and simulations used in core lessons and activities. Additional images and videos that are not integral parts of the core instruction are also provided in an Image Library; these can be useful for students who wish to go further. In each 5-6 week module there is at least one core activity that requires students to use the student CD-ROMs in a computer lab as an integral part of the activity. For example, in the Hominid Evolution module, students use the student CD-ROMs in a computer-based activity to explore and analyze data on UV intensity and skin pigmentation.
