Optimum for Ohio History CD
Looking for a new way to present Ohio history? Photonics Graphics of Cincinnati has come out with Optimum for Ohio History, a new interactive CD-ROM that covers Ohio history through six eras: Prehistoric, Frontier, Pioneer, Growth, Civil War and Industrial Revolution. The CD also includes a seventh section that covers information on the state symbols and the eight presidents from our state.
Optimum for Ohio History is closely aligned with the Ohio Department of Education's standards for 4th-grade social studies and is designed to assist in preparing students for Ohio's 4th-grade proficiency test. However, the CD also serves as a great resource for all grade levels.
Features of the program include hundreds of black and white and color graphics along with text and audio narration. Users can interact with the program through links to the Internet, the Buckeye Scavenger Hunt, EXTRA! Games and activities and review questions.
The CD is available in both Mac and Windows versions. You can download a demo from the web site at http://www.optimumtest.com
