Waste of Money
I have the student's guide and the teacher's guide.I have yet to figure out why the teacher's guide is even published.It is exactly the same as the student's book, except it has a few questions on each page in the margins, in very small blue print.There are some very short answers to the review questions done in the same manner.Overall, a waste of money to me.I was hoping for a little more depth, some further reading recommendations, etc.And how can you have a social studies series with absolutely NO TESTS?

Product Description

Whether we like it or not, computers are here to stay, and it is up to us as parents to ensure that our children are receiving a healthy introduction to the world of technology at school.

Offering a commonsense approach to computer education in Canada, Kids, Computers & You allows parents to assess just what is (or isn't) going on in our classrooms and then gives advice on how we can help improve the situation.

The authors offer parents with little or no knowledge of computers a comprehensive guide to the use of technology in schools as well as practical suggestions to problems such as antiquate equipment, untrained teachers, inappropriate curriculum and techno-zealots who seem intent on turning primary-grade students into programmers.
