Subject: Lab software
Bill,
We have been attempting to use McGraw-Hill's "PassKey" program to
supplement our developmental education labs (Introductory Math,
Reading
Assistance, and Writing Assistance). After making several attempts to
get the program to perform effectively in a 60+ workstation network,
we
have concluded that "PassKey" is very poorly written. Therefore, our
administration has directed the math faculty to begin searching for
replacement software to be used in our developmental education labs.
We
need to know the publisher of the software, the operating system being
used (Windows 95, 98, DOS, etc.) and the network specifications. The
Windows environment with a Windows NT 4.0 Server is our only option
for
the network server.
Please forward this message on to the members of the
Foundation/Developmental Mathematics Committee members, so that we can
begin contacting software publishers as quickly as possible.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Allen Grommet - Dept. of Math & Science
