Lead
designer
for  The Oxford Picture Dictionary Interactive This Codie-nominee software contains dozens of activities using every one of the picture spreads from the OPD. Identify the picture on hearing or reading the word, play a Jeopardy-type game, stop the clock, record a role in a little drama, make and print your own flashcards, and write compositions that link your own words directly to the picture dictionary. The latest edition uses digital art for greater clarity and the dialogues are now recorded as video. |
