Educational Software

The Inspiration software package assigned for evaluation is applicable for use in high school chemistry. A key benefit of this software package is the 30 day free trial period offered by the company. This is because all too often computer software is purchased sight unseen just to discover that it is either of poor quality or it is simply not suitable for the intended target audience.
A major plus of educational software is that it provides a technological and vivid hands-on approach to learning especially suitable for visual and kinesthetic learners. Major disadvantages associated with computer software other than the aforementioned is its expense and lack of compatability with existing computer hardware in a high school.
