Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
The New Way Things Work is a CD-ROM packed full of information about machines and the scientific principles behind them. Children can learn all about the latest technology and take a look back in history to find out how things work.
Children will enjoy, for example, navigating their way around the warehouse or choosing from the A-z of machines to extend their understanding of how things work and discover the science behind some great inventions. They can look at information screens with excellent text, diagrams, animation and video clips. They can also find out about some of the great inventors who created these amazing machines. There is a useful progress tracker to show children which screens they have visited and which screens are left for them to look at.
Children can also use their new-found knowledge to face the challenge of the science test and try to win a master, an expert or a genius certificate. Children can look back at information screens or take a look at the research answers if they are struggling.
The New Way Things Work would be a good buy for inquisitive children of 8 years and over who love to know how things work. It's particularly useful for helping children who are struggling with homework or doing a project, as it covers a huge range of scientific principles. --Amanda York

Format:CD-ROM
This is an excellent piece of software. It can be used for whole class demonstration, small group exploration or extended exercises to stretch better pupils. I have also used it to enable pupils who have been absent to catch up.

Format:Hardcover
This book is a nice gift for someone who likes to know how things work. The illustrations are entertaining and the digital section is also very informative. Probably a good book for parents with children who ask "why?"a lot of the time!
