- Rad_Detect Version 1.2.
- Acknowledgements.
- Thanks are due to Computer Concpets for providing me with a copy
- of their document processor software 'Impression'. Impression has
- been used to produce the illustrated worksheets. Computer Concepts
- are at Gaddesden Place, Hemel Hempstead, Herts., HP2 6EX.
- Some of the pictures have been produced with the aid of Computer
- Concepts 'Scan Light Junior'. The scanner was provided by ECS Computers,
- Kettlewell House, Kettlewell Lane, Kings Lynn, Norfolk, to whom I owe many
- thanks for their help and support in this project to produce Electronic
- Scientific Support Material (ESSM).
-
- Electronic Science Support Material (ESSM).
- ESSM is aimed at the science teacher. Its purpose is to produce
- high quality scientific pictures, worksheets, posters and at a later
- stage technical pictures that are stored on disc. This material can
- then be used and altered by teachers to suit their own needs. The
- material is copyright free, it may copied and passed on providing the
- copyright notice (see below) is observed. The cost of the material is
- intended to be about the price of a disc.
- In the past teachers have spent many hours producing printed
- information/worksheets/diagrams for pupils. Subsequently other
- teachers have used them but found that they did not quite meet their
- own requirements, or the original author found that the 'goal posts'
- had been moved, necessitating the material to be re-written. It
- occurred to me that if this work was done on a computer then it would
- be easier to tailor the material to suit individual needs. Until
- recently such work has been limited to text only, but with the
- development of the Archimedes and cheap, high quality, easy to use
- scanners such as Computer Concepts 'Scan Light' and 'Scan Junior',
- pictures can easily be put into a computer. Now pictures and text can
- be combined using desk top publishing (DTP) software, such as Computer
- Concepts 'Impression', (which is technically a document processor,
- capable of wordprocessing and desk top publishing) to produce a
- printed illustrated document. However, as the information is also on
- disc it can be easily altered to suit an individual teachers needs.
