About this title

From the Publisher

PAL is one of the first products of its kind -- a completely interactive on-line tutorial software program that teaches students how to use application software. PAL not only brings all the benefits of multimedia learning to students, but also features an extremely approachable, game-like user interface. The PAL program, distributed on CD-ROM to adoptors of the accompanying student text, is installed on the PCs in the computer lab and accessed directly from the HELP menu of the particular software being used (Word for Windows, for example). Students use their text in conjunction with the PAL software to work through word processing, spreadsheet, or database exercises and to acquaint themselves with the key features of the program they're using. PAL textbooks are saleable items purchased by students; there is no charge to instructors for the CD-ROM.
