Also, a large collection of hand-selected Web sites and lesson plans enhance this product. The combination of features and content makes this database a valuable resource for students and educators. The New View Almanac is primarily geared toward students in grades 6-10. Information is provided in a graphical format allowing users to see the information in a visually alluring layout instead of the common flat, textual format, which is difficult for visual learners to process. The Take Notes feature lets the researcher create notes during their session.
Researchers can e-mail, print, or save their notes from a session for later use.
Information created by the user in the Take Notes screen can be printed or e-mailed. Notes can be typed into the text field, or information can be copied and pasted into the text window. The New View Almanac is sub-divided into categories to facilitate searching.
