Podcast58: Outstanding Commercial Digital Curriculum

A increasing wealth of high quality digital curriculum and free, open-source software programs are available today for students and teachers in schools. Yet despite these plentiful, free choices, there are still compelling reasons for schools to purchase or license some commercial digital software and curriculum programs. This podcast is a rebroadcast of a session presented for educators in El Paso, Texas, on May 3, 2006 on the topic “Outstanding Commercial Digital Curriculum.”
