Middle School Advantage 2009 Reviews
It has a mystical storyline, supposedly based on Merlin and Morganna from King Arthur, but it was really sort of weird. I loaded the set fine with absolutely no problems. Anyway, this set is wonderful. I'm not sure why the other reviewer had problems loading this set onto their computer. Also included as a bonus is the Encyclopaedia Brittanica Ready Reference. The language portion is worth the price in and of itself. A wide variety of subjects are covered and the iPOD materials that are downloadable are a wonderful addition. It is a great accompaniment to formal instruction and a fun way for kids to learn.
Since this version is the 2009, I'm not sure how the other reviewer could possibly have purchased it two years ago, but maybe I misread what was written. Similiar to Rosetta Stone except without the pictures and a lot less costly. Quizzes are included in each section to help determine comprehension. The only thing we didn't care for was the bonus game Runes of Avalon. Overall, I highly recommend this product for anyone wanting a supplement to their current curriculum.
Since my laptop was so-so, I blamed the laptop. Don't buy any products from Encore/Advantage. Now I just got a new laptop and the only program which does not load is this new Advatage 2009. I put the **** in the garbage. I purchased this product two years ago and it didn't load or work.
