Unlike in India, where computers are just entering the classroom, they have been used in schools for a few years in some countries like the US. "Not very successfully", say the skeptics. It is arguable that appropriate educational software has been unavailable to truly exploit the computer's potential. It appears that such software is just beginning to become available, and will hopefully allow the computer's potential to be used more fully.   

EYEWITNESS ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SCIENCE  

Yet another encyclopedia.  A newest way I discovered to learn the entire range of subjects like Maths, Science, Geography, History, Philosophy, Psychology and more and more, the list is never ending. If problems are there then this CD has solutions. Solutions of every kind and nature. More importantly the whole encyclopedia is cool with its multimedia animations on the subjects. It makes the subject more interesting and likeable. Want to know history of America? Who was Columbus? Where is Indonesia? Which are traditional festivals of India? and there are more and more 'who?'  'what?' 'where?' 'how?'. You ask it the encyclopedia will say, guide, and explain it you? 
Worth checking if you are in a search of something.

I have made a complete journey of science, and I am not joking! Ask me anything and I will answer with the help of my dear CD.

I do find what I want to find, say for e.g. If I want to know what the chemical properties of air? Or who made the atom bomb?

Amazing ways are created to make the story of various science objects interesting that are linked to special multimedia effects and animations.
