3.4.4 Reflection

        Computer software is used in some classrooms and it is a good decision to use after being determined by the teacher. Certain students learn very fast compared to the others. This needs to be understood when going to class with students who may learn slower. When using software, a teacher should be prepared to go slow over everything the learner needs to know. Most challenging software includes:
·         Cartopedia: The Ultimate World Reference Atlas·         Celestia·         Google Earth ·         Gravit - a free (GPL) Newtonian gravity simulator
·         KGeography
·         Swamp Gas Visits the United States of America - a game that teaches geography to childrenKid Pix is a drawing software used in elementary classroom. It is more engaging and can even be used at home . A learner in a class using computer software gets basic computer skills needed to use a computer. Educational software is a fun way of learning and can be a good thing to use as a learning tool. You can also visit http://www.thirteen.org/edonline/software/resources/kidpix.html
