Teachers Help Develop New Multimedia Product

Portland, Oregon, March 3, 1995. Kathy Knowlton from Adams Elementary
School in Mesa, Arizona, Karen G. Wenstrom from Chatham Middle School in
Chatham, New Jersey and Rick Crosslin from Chapel Glen Elementary in
Danville, Illinois shared in the development of the money issue of The
Discovery Toolkit. Pierian Spring Software, educational multimedia
software developer, chose Knowlton, Wenstrom, and Crosslin because of
their academic excellence and strong reputation as innovative educators.

The money issue of The Discovery Toolkit features pictures of money from
around the world, movies illustrating the principles of exchange, sounds
of money, and text fields about the history and science of money. The
picture, movie, sound, and text files are distributed on floppy disks in
standard formats for use in word processing, graphics software, and
creative multimedia programs. this issue also features twenty-five copies
of a newsletter containing lesson plans and project ideas for use in a
classroom, media lab, or library compiled and created by these teachers.

"The Money issue could not have been created without the help of Kathy
Knowlton, Karen Wenstrom, and Rick Crosslin," said Jennifer Davis,
Managing Editor of The Discovery Toolkit. "The creative ideas and exciting
innovations they submitted have encouraged teachers and students all over
the country to explore Money." Each issue of The- Discovery Toolkit is a
liberal site license that allows unlimited distribution at a building
site, plus free take home privileges for every teacher and student in the
building.

Pierian Spring Software always solicits the advice and cooperation of
classroom teachers in the development of their software for schools to
ensure educational validity. Pierian Spring Software is an Apple Education
Solutions Provider.
