Consider a scenario in which you want to learn a new language. However,
there are no schools in your area that teach the language. With an
educational software program, a computer can help you learn the new
language. Educational software programs often use audio-visual clips and
games to make learning more effective.
Educational software is used in classrooms, offices, and homes.
Educational software is available on various topics that are applicable to
different age groups. For example, Microsoft Encarta is a widely used
digital encyclopedia that is available on both CD-ROM and DVD-ROM.
You can also use computers as a source of entertainment. You can use
entertainment software to play games, listen to music, record music, draw
pictures, and watch movies on a computer. Video CDs and DVDs that allow you
to watch movies and music videos as well as listen to music are all
examples of entertainment software that is used for recreation.
