Selecting Educational Software

When selecting Ministry licensed software to use in the classroom teachers are faced with many challenges. Many teachers have expressed concerns about the limited time students have to use the computer lab. It is therefore very important that the time be well spent. In order to align the computer use with the curriculum expectations osapac has developed a data base. With the input of key words (e.g. graph) and grade level, the data base will search for curriculum links. The results show the title of the software, the code and the expectations. To access the data base search page go to osapac.org/dbOess/dbExpect.asp.
