Rating: - Problem solving strategy
This software has been good for kids and also for adults with disabilities. There is a good help section, a way to play with himts and it can get pretty hard if you do well. Not a lot of reading, so it works for those who might not be strong readers, but want a strategy challenge! Works well with either Mac or Win
Rating: - Learning and challenging all in one!
It is amazing to think of what all a student can learn and do with this piece of software. I have used this program with students with and without disabilities, integrated it into a History/Social Studies Unit where students travel around the world and learn about different cultures. Students learn how to think ahead, can play the computer, or can play against another student. There are different difficulty levels, that I found myself as an adult being challenged. I found this to be fun and engaging, and a great way to get kids thinking!
