| 2 | Introduction | Introduction, ,Crosscountry USA Photo Safari is an interactive science and geography program designed to teach and strengthen many different skills. Students become wildlife photographers and are assigned to take pictures of animals on their journey. The program encourages students to have fun while they learn: , ,- facts about the United States (weather, terrain, cities, population, and more) ,- basic map-reading and map-interpretation skills ,- how to budget (time, distance, and expenses),- problem-solving skills,- an understanding of animal habitats,- what animals need to survive,- the appearance and behavior of animals,- human impact on animals, ,The program may be played on different levels. , ,Younger children tend to use the program at an introductory level. They learn basic facts about map reading and the differences in terrain across the country. Crosscountry USA Photo Safari also teaches students where cities and states are located, as well as where endangered animals live. We have included 3 saved games with the program, for users who would like to have direct access to the animal information in the laptop photo album. , ,Older children tend to use the program on a more complex level. They learn the facts, but they also learn methods for determining the fastest, most cost-effective route to their destination. In addition, older children learn about animals' life cycles, human impact on animals, and ecosystems., ,The game is an excellent tool to promote geographical literacy. It also helps broaden children's knowledge about the US while developing higher-level thinking skills., ,*Please note: An animal's status (e.g. endangered or threatened) may change depending on a variety of factors. Also, animals may be listed differently at the state and federal levels., , | |
| 3 | Glossary | Glossary, , ,AMPHIBIAN,An amphibian is a special kind of animal. It can live in water and on land. Most baby amphibians live in water. They breathe with gills., ,Most adult amphibians live on land near water. They breathe with lungs and/or through their skin. Salamanders and frogs are amphibians., , ,ENDANGERED,"Endangered" means that an animal is in danger of becoming extinct (see EXTINCT below)., , ,EXTINCT,"Extinct" means that an animal is gone forever. None is left alive anywhere in the world., , ,HABITAT,The place or area where an animal lives., , ,LIFE CYCLE,The stages an animal goes through during its life. Some of these stages are birth (or hatching from an egg), growth, aging, and death., , ,MAMMAL,A mammal is a warm-blooded animal. A baby mammal drinks its mother's milk. , ,Mammals have hair or fur. Humans, whales, and deer are mammals., , ,NATURE PRESERVE,An area where wildlife, lands, and waters are protected. People can visit most nature preserves. But they may not be allowed to do some things (for example, hunt or camp)., , ,PESTICIDE,Pesticides are chemicals used to kill or drive away pests. Pests can be insects, animals, fungi, or plants., ,Pests live where people do not want them to live. Many farmers use pesticides to kill insects that eat their crops., , ,REPTILE,A cold-blooded animal with scales. Snakes, crocodiles, lizards, and turtles are reptiles., , ,SPECIES,A "species" is a group of living things with many common traits. Members of the same species can reproduce with each other. Humans are a species., ,Each species has a Latin name. For example, the Indiana bat is called "Myotis sodalis.", , ,THREATENED,"Threatened" means that an animal is likely to be endangered in the future (see ENDANGERED above)., , ,WILDLIFE REFUGE,An area of lands or waters that is protected by law. The goal of a wildlife refuge is to protect and restore habitat for wild animals and plants (see HABITAT above)., ,Some wildlife refuges were set up to protect one endangered animal or plant. People can visit most wildlife refuges., | |

| 6 | - System Requirements | System Requirements, ,Windows:, ,- 166 MHz processor (or better),- Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 4, 2000 or XP,- 32 MB RAM (64 MB recommended),- 640 x 480 resolution display with 16-bit color (or better),- CD-ROM drive (required for program installation only),- 100 MB available hard-disk space,- DirectX Version 3 or better,- Windows-compatible sound card (if sound is desired), , ,Mac:, ,- Power Mac with 133 MHz processor (or better),- Mac OS 8.6, 9.x, 10.1.x or up,- 50 MB free RAM,- 640 x 480 resolution display with thousands of colors (or better),- CD-ROM drive (required for program installation only),- 100 MB available hard-disk space, , ,Linux:, ,- 166 MHz processor (or better),- Redhat 8.x or Mandrake 9.x (or better),- 32 MB RAM (64 MB recommended),- 640 x 480 resolution display with 16-bit color (or better),- CD-ROM drive (required for program installation only),- 100 MB available hard-disk space,- Linux-compatible sound card (if sound is desired),Special Considerations for Schools,--------------------------------------------------,For Server installations, the server requires 200 MB of available hard disk space. You can install onto any server type (Windows, Mac, Novell, or Linux). In order to keep demands on your server and network low, the program is designed to run from 'local' installations on each workstation. There is too much graphic and animation content in the program to allow all workstations to run from a central server copy of the program. The Server installation is to be used by your client workstations as a central reference point for automatic program updates (you install any updates to the server only, and the workstations will automatically update themselves). The Server installation is not a central database for the storage of any student records, or for their saved games. | |
| 7 | - Installation | Installation, ,See the printed documentation included in your package for more information., ,If you have lost your documentation, check our Ingenuity Works website at:, , www.ingenuityworks.com, Click on Support, Click on Frequently Asked Questions - Crosscountry, | |
| 8 | - Synchronize Program | Sychronize Program technology, ,(This topic applies only to those schools that have the Network/Site License edition of the program.), ,This program includes our new Synchronize Program technology to ease the initial installation of the program as well as future installation of program upates., ,Under this system, the network administrator need only install the original program, and any future updates, from the CD-ROM onto the file server once. From that copy, all client (student or teacher) workstations will automatically synchronize themselves if they detect available updates on the file server. , ,In order for this feature to work, the user (student or teacher) needs read-only privileges for the Server Folder (where the Server installation has been installed on the file server hard disk), and read-write privileges for the Destination Folder (where the Client program is installed on the workstation local hard disk). , ,Initial Installation,------------------------,In a networked environment, we suggest the network administrator start by installing a Server installation into a folder on the file server. This procedure will copy all of the files from the CD-ROM onto the file server's hard disk. Then, the administrator can visit each workstation, browse to the Server installation, run the Setup program in that folder, and install the Client program onto each workstation. See the Quick Start guide included in your package for more information., ,Installing Program Updates,---------------------------------------,Whenever the program is launched on a client workstation, it will first check the Server installation to see if there are any updated program files available on the file server. If it detects new program files, it will automatically synchronize the local Client installation to the Server installation. It will then carry on and run the program. If the sychronization fails due to lack of privileges, it will quietly proceed to run the program without generating error halts that could confuse students. , ,If a security system is in place that resets workstations back to a known state on re-boot, then the users will likely go through an synchronization every day. In such cases, the network administrator should arrange to disable the security, and run the Client program to force a Synchronize Program cycle that will stay in place after re-boot. Because the Synchronize Program process is so quick, the network administrator can schedule this procedure for whenever it's convenient and can be confident that the daily synchronization is not causing major delays for students. | |

| 10 | - Game Instructions | Game Instructions, ,Prior to playing the program, we recommend that you read through all the game instructions and functions listed in the Help navigation bar at left. Read the sections called "Sample Game" and "Starting a New Game." The Sample Game will walk you through a short game and give you a good idea of how Crosscountry USA Photo Safari works., ,Also read the sections called "The Dash" and "The Laptop Computer." These sections will help you become familiar with both of these crucial parts of the program., ,The "Glossary" defines terms used in the game. The Glossary sits between the "Introduction" and "Getting Started" sections in the Help menu at left. The definitions were written at a reading level suitable for young children., ,And be sure to read the "Basic Game Functions" section and the headings below it. These sections will help you navigate and ensure that you are accessing all the information you need to make informed decisions., , | |
| 11 | - Sample Game | A Sample Game , ,In Crosscountry USA Photo Safari, players set out on a fascinating mission to find and photograph endangered animals. This simulation lets players drive a truck through every state and more than 100 cities in search of animals. Driving safely and staying healthy along the way is very important for a successful journey. , ,This sample game is the fastest way to learn the basics of Crosscountry USA Photo Safari. You should be up to speed in about 15 minutes., ,Follow these learning steps: , ,Launch the Crosscountry USA Photo Safari program and click on the "Load Scenario" button. , ,Choose the "1 player option" and the scenario "sample.scn"., ,Click on the "Load Scenario" button. Your "Photo Assignment" will appear.,This assignment gives you critical information that you need to play your sample game. , ,Click on the "Country Map" tab (look for the ôNö in the upper-left corner of the screen). A U.S. map appears, showing you where your truck is currently located and your destination city. The Country Map also shows you where to find the animals you need to photograph. You may look at this screen at any time during the game., ,In the sample scenario, your truck is in Sacramento, California, and your destination city is Bakersfield, California. Your mission is to photograph a brown pelican and a California condor. Then you will deliver the photographs to Bakersfield., ,For this sample game, photograph the brown pelican first. According to the map, you will find brown pelicans near San Diego, CA; San Francisco, CA; Jacksonville, FL; Biloxi, MS, and Corpus Christi, TX. Since San Francisco is the closest city to Sacramento, go to San Francisco first., ,Click on the "Detailed Map" tab to plan your route. Then click on the "Dash" button (look for the steering wheel in the top right-hand corner of the screen) to start driving., ,Click on the seatbelt to buckle up., ,Click on the key in the ignition. The key will turn to the "on" position., ,On your compass at the top of the windshield, click on the direction in which you would like to go (all possible directions are lit up in green). In this case, choose southwest., ,Finally, click the gas pedal and you will start to drive. , ,You are now driving toward the West Coast of the United States, headed for San Francisco., ,While you are driving, keep an eye on the ôSleepö (ZZZ) and ôRestaurantö (dinner plate) icons on the right-hand side of your screen to ensure that you are not tired or hungry. If you decide to eat or sleep, click on the appropriate icon. The cost will then be added to your expenses., ,Once you arrive in San Francisco, click on the "Camera" button on the left-hand side of the windshield. A photo of the brown pelican will appear on your screen for a moment. To find out more about the brown pelican, click on the ôPhoto Albumö icon, and then click on the ôAnimalsö tab. Here, you can read a description of the pelican and see more photos., ,Next, you'll need to find and photograph a California condor. Looking at your Country Map, youÆll see that California condors live near Flagstaff, AZ and Los Angeles, CA. Use the large wall map or click on the "Detailed Map" tab to consider which city to visit. , ,Remember that you have to deliver your photographs to Bakersfield, CA. At this point, you will have to choose between two routes. As you can see from the Detailed Map, photographing California condors near Los Angeles requires less driving than a trip to Flagstaff., ,Click on the "Dash" button to get back to the cab of the truck., ,Click southeast on your compass, and then click on the gas pedal. , ,If you run out of gas between cities, you can rescue yourself by selecting "Tow Truck" from the cell phone., ,Continue on to Los Angeles using the map and compass. Once you get to Los Angeles, click on the "Camera'' button. , ,Now you have taken photographs of all of your assigned endangered animals. Next, you must deliver them to your destination city, Bakersfield., ,Once you arrive in your destination city, you will have completed your mission., ,Study your travel log. Did you make good choices? , ,If so, congratulations! | |

Locate your truck (the green dot) and your destination city., ,Next, click on the box beside each of your needed animal photographs. Now you'll need to do a little planning., ,Based on your truck's location and your destination city, you must determine the most efficient route to take all of your photos. , ,When choosing which cities to visit, consider the terrain and the distance you'll have to travel to photograph the animals. Always keep in mind the location of your destination city, because you can photograph your last animal on the way there. |
| 19 | - Choosing a Direction | Choosing a Direction, ,Your truck can travel in eight directions (N, S, E, W, NE, NW, SE, SW). You can travel in the direction indicated by any of the lines leading out of the city in which you are currently located., ,Locate the compass near the top of your truck's windshield. Click on any direction highlighted by a green dot. , ,*Tip: Look for the closest and most convenient location where you can photograph your next animal (see the Country Map). Remember to select a direction before you start to drive. |
| 20 | - Driving the Truck | Driving the Truck, ,Point your mouse at the ignition keys and click on them to start the truck., ,Click on the seatbelt to fasten it., ,Choose your direction and click on the gas pedal to start driving.

A dialog box will appear. , ,Click on the narrow gray field in the dialog box and type a name for your travel log (e.g. my_log_feb_12). , ,Then click on the "Save" button. , ,Your travel log will be saved as a .txt file in a folder called saved_travel_logs. This folder is located in the Crosscountry folder on your computer. You can then open and print this .txt file using any text editor. Common text editors include Notepad (on PCs) and SimpleText (on Macs). |
| 34 | - Loading Scenarios | Loading Scenarios, ,Pre-designed scenarios have been saved in this area. Instead of playing a randomly generated game, you can choose a pre-designed scenario. This option is useful if you would like all players to have the same assignment., ,A scenario is a combination of your starting city, your destination, and the animals you need to photograph along the way. |
| 35 | - Deleting Saved Games | Deleting Saved Games, ,This function is outlined in the Teacher Resource Guide (available in school versions of Crosscountry USA Photo Safari only). |
| 36 | Minimizing Expenses | Strategies for Minimizing Expenses, ,The winner in Crosscountry USA Photo Safari is the driver who has spent the least amount of money at the end of the game. Children should be allowed to discover the best strategies on their own. , ,These tips may help:, ,- Fuel is the greatest single expense. You can minimize fuel consumption by avoiding mountainous terrain, by not speeding, and by choosing the correct route! , ,- Running out of gas between cities is expensive. The tow truck driver will supply 20 gallons of gas at $2.50 per gallon! Near the end of the game, you should plan to purchase only enough gas so that the tank is nearly empty as you drive into the destination city. Because fuel expenses are added at the time of purchase, any fuel left in the tank when the game ends is a wasted expense. , ,- Eating costs $5.00 plus tax. Going without food for too long increases your risk of having an accident. , ,- Sleeping in the truck saves on hotel bills. But before you do so, remember to turn off the headlights and the engine. You get a more restful sleep staying in a hotel than sleeping in the truck. , ,- Speeding and going without food or sleep will minimize time spent on the road. This causes a reduction in the daily wear and tear charge ($65 per day). But speeding increases your risk of getting a $50 speeding ticket from the highway patrol and increases the chances of having an accident. In addition to a speeding ticket, if you can also get a ticket for not having your seatbelt on. Going without eating and sleeping also increases your risk of having an accident. It is best to eat and sleep at regular intervals. , ,Photographing a bonus animal is worth $350. The truck gets 16 miles to the gallon (5 if you are speeding or in mountains). A quick arithmetic calculation will determine if photographing a bonus animal will be worthwhile. , |
