The Mystery of History Vol 1 Art Pak CD-Rom
WOW!!!
This CD-Rom is visually exciting and begs to be explored. I love the way
the projects are "cross-referenced" - for example, using bird and animal
themes from different cultures. It helps students consider the fact that
while one nation was emerging the clock didn't just "stand still" until
another appeared. The materials list is thorough and consists of readily
found objects. The instructions are simple to comprehend due to the
close-up demonstrations in the photos and the clear, concise written
material. This would be great for co-ops or for single family use. I
would include it as part of my history course but many will love it just
for the sake of the artistic instruction and exploration. Bonus –
fantastic video clips! If you are using The Mystery of History Volume
One, you will be blessed by this add-on art course.
