I. VOCABUCOMP -- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
VER 2.3
The VOCABUCOMP program is intended to be used for vocabulary review.
Vocabulary is an essential part of many areas of study. Words are the
basis of understanding. In many areas, learning the vocabulary is almost
like learning a foreign language. Once you know the language, you
can use it to think about the particular area.
The more you review vocabulary, the better you get at it, and the better you
will be able to use the words and recognize the words in reading or a
in a test.
YOU NEED TO USE THIS PROGRAM OVER AND OVER TO LEARN THE WORDS WELL!
Many tests rely on your use of vocabulary terms. The more you review
vocabulary terms, the more likely you are to do well on such tests.
In most areas of study, the vocabulary is used only as a way to understand
something. That means that the vocabulary is just a stepping stone
to understanding. In other words, don't study vocabulary only. You need
to spend an equal amount of time in thinking about processes, about how
things work or why they happen the way that they do.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: DOS 2.1 or higher, 256 K.
A hard drive, color monitor, and a printer are optional.
