School administrators around the country are concerned about their studentsÍ performance on standardized tests.

As an example, if 4th grade students are studying the American Revolution in social studies, and are learning how to do multimedia presentations in the computer lab, COMPUTER EXPLORERS students would use information about the revolution as the content of their slide shows. Project content could include maps of the thirteen colonies, information about the author of the Declaration of Independence, graphs of cash crops, a recipe for cornbread, and drawings of musketsƒ with the slides enhanced by fife and drum music playing in the background!
