Photo CD-ROM copyright 2003 J-PROGS
ROMANA 2.1 Cross platform CD-ROM copyright 2004 J-PROGS
ROMANA Suite consists of ROMANA 2.1 and the ROMANA Photo CD, which can be bought together at a reduced rate for schools. The ROMANA Suite provides an exceptional collection of materials to support classroom use of ICT, allowing for the generation of measurable learning outcomes and multiple uses of the resources.
"Those
familiar with Julian
Morgan's products will know what to expect: an
abundance of excellent visuals (clear, uncluttered graphics
and properly-taken photographs garnered from years of
personal visits), succinct and accurate accompanying text
which is enough to be informative but not overpowering, and a
clear, common interface which allows for easy and logical
navigation: even the current reviewer can cope with colour
coding along the lines of green for going forward and red for
going back. The quiz scores achieved by the pupils actually
provide 'measurable learning outcomes' and technical improvements
on the networking side of things allow these scores to be
more efficiently logged and accessed.
Julian Morgan has applied to his Romana 2 suite the same strategy he employed with his Rome the Eternal City program, i.e. publishing a CD of the 1000 jpeg computer images to be found in (but which can't be lifted from) the parent program. jpegs are of course Mac and PC compatible, and their flexibility is amazing: no installation program is necessary and the selected image can be lifted at ease from the CD and inserted onto a web page, work sheet, word processed document, image manipulation program or Powerpoint presentation, where it can be further manipulated at will.
As those familiar with Julian Morgan's photography will have come to expect, excellence comes as standard: these are not casual holiday snaps, but pictures taken by someone who knows what they are doing. The images are well catalogued and can be accessed by site from the folders or by theme from the index (in rich text format) provided."
