This unique computer package allows the teaching of important aspects of both Economics and Business Studies GCSE and A-level syllabi using computer slides rather than the old-fashioned hand-drawn OHP. All the software required by your PC is supplied free with the resource.
The Package
Eight separate computer slide shows on CD-ROM, each containing 30 slides and accompanied by teacher's notes and suggested questions, together with the Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer for Windows 3.1 or Windows 95. Easy to install on any PC with Windows by following the printed installation guide which comes with the package. Once installed, the slide show advances one slide with each click of the mouse, or can be set to run through the slides automatically.
The Uses
Each computer slide show can be used as a graphic introduction to, or summary of, a major section in the syllabus to aid the understanding of key concepts. The Economics Computer Slide Show is a classroom presentation technique with far more visual impact than OHP slides and is more flexible and professional looking. Teachers can concentrate on explaining and discussing the point rather than shuffling OHP slides or scribbling illegibly on the board! The teacher's notes supplied suggest points to emphasise while making a presentation to the students. Questions to set for the remainder of the lesson, or for homework, are also included on the CD-ROM. Both teacher's notes and questions come in MS Word format.
The Content
There are two sets of shows, one for A-level and one for GCSE. Each show of around 30 slides produces flow diagrams which spread across the screen, with pictures, photographs and graphs as well as bullet points that 'materialise' one by one.
