  • 02/01/96

CyberEd introduces 12 biology CD–;ROMs for grades seven and up: DNA, The Molecule of Life; Enzymes; Food Chains & Webs; Bird Characteristics & Adaptations; Cell Structure & Function; Cellular Res¼ration; The Leaf; Meiosis; Mendel's Principles of Heredity; Photosynthesis; Mitosis; and Roots and Stems.

Courses are designed to meet the instructor's curriculum guidelines with new scripts and visuals and parallel current textbooks. Tutorials reinforce presentation material and provide a "hands–;on" learning experience through mouse–;driven exercises.

    Project HUNCH (High Schools United with NASA to Create Hardware) gives students the opportunity to design and build products for potential use in space missions.
