To the person interested in K-12 programs for the InfoWindow:  Perhaps others
on the list would be interested in this info.

I'm currently running an IBM curriculum called PALS designed to teach
functional illiterate adults to read.  I've just received a demo videotape
of a program called Earth & Space which also runs on InfoWindow.  I saw it
demonstrated at an administrators conference in San Diego last October.
It's especially designed for ESL, 7th & 8th grade, to teach the vocabulary of
science.  The publisher is Media Learning Systems, 1492 W. Colorado Blvd.,
Pasadena, CA. 91105.  Phone: 1-800-321-5936.

If you call your local IBM rep, I'm sure you can get the names of other
"business partners" who produce software for InfoWindow.  I know there is
a drug prevention program aimed at Jr High/High School students, but I
don't know the name of the publisher.
