Teaches: history

CTR Review

This is a collection of 33 historical events that occurred over the last 100 or so years. The first is in 1894, when Thomas Edison opened the first movie theater. The last is Bill Clinton's inauguration. Each event is illustrated with a choppy, two minute slide show and a page of text. The CD contents are easy to browse, and a time line and quiz add a bit of depth to the content, although both are limited in design. Missing is a search feature, as well as many important historical events. The Windows version requires installation of QuickTime 2.1.1 which can make the installation process clumsy.
