ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

We will be updating the computers in one of our exhibit halls. I am scouting
out the software to go in the updated computers. The plan is to have 6
workstations for visitors:

Chemistry

Physics

Biology/Anatomy

The Environment

Astronomy

"How Stuff Works" (We already have this software.) 

 

The grade level focus should be 5-12. Vivid and image driven materials work
best for our guests. Wordiness is not good. 

 

I have found a few vivid and informative titles but would like some ideas
from those who have done this before. What are some good titles? Who makes,
sells, or donates them? Does anyone have experience with the Tool Factory
Inc. titles?
