The Book Report Program
This program asks the user questions about a book they have read.
The questions are grouped into six major areas; (Library information,
Setting, Main character, Supporting characters, Main Scene, and Feelings
about the book). The user is allowed one line per answer, with the
option of getting another line for most of the questions. The objective
of this one line format is to get the students to think about the
book they've read, and write down important ideas that they can later
develop into complete answers or reports.
The Book Report Program can be used as a pre-writing activity for
students needing to compose book reports. The students can save their
responses to a text file on this disk or a data disk, which can then be
accessed via most ASCII word processors for revision. Or, the students
can print their responses and use the hard copy as a starting point for
a more complete report.
This program has been developed as a supplement to junior high or
high school English classes.
The Book Report Program requires an IBM computer. A printer is
optional.
If you find this program useful, a contribution ($15-$20 suggested) to
this full-time ESL instructor, part-time Graduate student, beginning
software developer, would be greatly appreciated. Updated versions are
also available.

user-created problems.
