Last week I asked for suggestions for magazines on cd-rom. Several responses were suggestions for databases such as SIRS or Newsbank. I am sorry for the confusion as I was asking about titles for magazines in which the whole issue is on cd-rom. If anyone has some more suggestions I will add them to the list. I highly recommend Classroom Connect, 1866 Colonial Village Lane, Lancaster, PA 17601-6704. This has worlds of lesson plans for teachers and a great number of site addresses. A very practical journal for using the Internet. Not sure of the price, around $30 or $40, I believe. Address is www.classroom.net In 1994, I purchased the Time Almanac network version. I haven't had the funds to upgrade it but I sure can't take it off the network. The students love looking at it and playing the quiz that it has. It sees plenty of usage. I like Multimedia schools because of the educational sites. It has a strong school emphasis although many teachers here also like Mac User I have used the CD-ROM magazine Proquest for the past 2 years and the students love it. It is very user friendly and much easier to locate materials than the Reader's Guide. One other recommendation was for the cd-rom version of PC Computing magazine. Deborah Stafford Gen H.H.
