This edition seems to be very similar to the school edition. Again it would be a very good resource for in the classroom.
1. The kids area seems to be very similar to the school kids area. The look of the page is different but the arrangement of information and the options for other resources (maps, games, etc.) is the same.
2. The Info Finder seems to be very similary to the Student version of the School edition. I like the close-up pictures in the interactive earth features. This is neat for kids to see actual pictures of places they are learning about.
3. The Reference Center is similar to the Advanced version of the School edition. I do like the addition of the Government Resources option and the How to option. This enhances what you are looking for and can supplement your information.
The type of information that would most benefit my patrons would be the Kids section. Since I do teach young children this section would be the most educational for them.
You're right, MickeyMouse. This edition is parallel to the school edition. The articles are the same, but some of the special features are different. Thanks for looking at this edition and making comments.
