Gunn plans to acquire new editions of the iCD program in the hope that this will be an evolving series that will be of great use and inspiration to our patrons. The Magic Applehouse offers students the chance to learn basic computer skills through several learning games. In a cartoon-like character environment, the student is guided through the different lessons as she explores the onscreen items that react to being selected. Older children may enter the part of the program that teaches more complex computer and business awareness skills using simple spreadsheets and other market activities. The Magic Applehouse motivates children's learning and rewards each child's efforts.
Spoken instructions ensure that even prereaders benefit from parts of the program.
A teacher's guide and activity sheets are included.
