Australia - Single User

This boxed-set, which includes a CD-ROM and accompanying supporting documentation, presents textual as well as visual information on the cultural, social and natural history of Australia.

Using the multimedia pack, the user can visit major tourist areas, see and hear native Australian animals, learn about the environment, compare sport facts, view information on the parliamentary process and travel back in time.

Each page of information is illustrated and every chapter has a range of video segments accompanied by the relevant sounds.

All the necessary instructions are included on screen so that the CD-ROM can be used interactively by all ages.

The interactive package features over 1500 pages of text, 1500 colour images as well as 40 minutes of video.

There are also tools included to create and playback your own "minibook", add notes, bookmarks, copy text, photographs, and tables for example.

Users undertaking a project or exploring the country of Australia or with a interest in its natural history should find this pack useful.
