Package Helps One Create Web Graphics

CorelXARA combines the power and flexibility of vector and bitmap illustration software in one package. Its anti-aliasing and graduated transparency features are highly suited to the creation of graphics for Web pages or for traditional multimedia presentations. The CD-ROM includes over 10,000 clipart images, 250 textures, 500 photos and 500 TrueType and Type 1 fonts. Images can be saved as JPEG, GIF, interlaced GIF and transparent GIF formats, popularly used in Web pages. Semi or graduated transparencies are assigned to any vector or bitmap object by clicking and dragging. The Infobar changes with the drawing tool selected, providing instant access to all operations and eliminating the need to search through menus. Other highlights of CorelXARA are infinite Undo and 25,000% zoom for detailed work. Corel Corp., Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, (800) 772-6735, www.corel.com. W

    Stop Asking Whether Students Can Use AI

    As generative AI has become embedded in the tools students use to search, write, create, translate, organize, and receive feedback, the boundary between "using AI" and "not using AI" has become increasingly difficult to define. More importantly, treating AI use as a binary choice does little to help students understand the different roles AI can appropriately play in learning.
