Review:
From the Back Cover:
‘The ideal way of introducing two of the most rewarding works in the Shakespearean canon to unsuspecting students.’ ECT (Hamlet and Julius Caesar)
‘Quite simply multimedia at its best’ CD-ROM Now
‘We use the BBC Macbeth, which we find much better for our learners than other versions with the BBC version, students are more likely to use the disk on their own’ BECTa
This key SATs text has been brought to dramatic life on computer, video extracts communicate the language beautifully (including John Gielgud and Anthony Andrews). Set at GCSE by SEG.
CD-ROMs motivate students to learn: illustrations, audio, video and text all come together in a package that is entertaining as well as informative.
The extensive background information is much more colourful and accessible than a printed introduction. Coverage includes: characters, plot, performance, language, themes, Shakespeare's life and times, sources and critical opinions, including newly published material. A glossary is also available. Words with text notes attached are highlighted, one click of the mouse and the note pops up!
Each CD-ROM comes with a set of Teacher's Notes, offering up-to-date advice, extension activities, background information and photocopiable worksheets.
We support your installation of our product by including a clear 'User Guide' and a helpline that you can contact in the event of any problems.
