Each
Western Civilization PicturePack Collection
covers one of fifteen major periods in the history
of Western Civilization. Each Collection contains a
thorough, in-depth series of visual lessons - each
one a segment of history,
told in beautiful large-size images and historical
captions (articles). PicturePacks
are inexpensive, and allow you to order just the
historical content you need. Created
in
html
(web-based)
format, PicturePacks
run
in
your
own
Windows
web
browser
(Internet
Explorer
or
Netscape
Navigator),
so
the
PicturePack
"look
and
feel"
is
friendly
and
familiar,
and
there
is
no
installation
and
minimal
user
instruction.
PicturePacks
allow
independent study, but they are also resources,
designed to allow you to use
the rich, varied content to create presentations,
handouts, student reports, and much more.
Simple, clear instructions are included. PicturePack
Collections are delivered on CD.
