Educator Discs and Videos Want to Provide
The Fullest Possible Educational Computer Software Support
For the Rapidly Growing Worldwide Home Education Movement ...

Initially, everything in this range was written by home-schooling parents for home-schooling students. The Directors' two sons - Jack and Jason, now grown up - were entirely home-schooled: they never attended any external primary school, nor any external secondary school. The programs in this range were written with much love and care for the two boys in the first place. Although the general public and schools have by now bought many thousands upon thousands of the discs produced by Educator Discs and Videos of New Zealand, the general public and schools actually occurred to the directors very much as an after-thought! When their sons did extremely well with this dynamic home-schooling software in terms of qualifications gained, its wider value soon became obvious, and Its flexible and user-friendly approach is now making it of great value to countless other home education families all around the world.

MAKE YOUR WAY INTO CYBERSPACE EDUCATION WITH EDUCATOR DISCS - BLAZING NEW INROADS INTO HOME EDUCATION AND COMPUTERISED SCHOOLING!

Like the genie of Aladdin's magic lamp, Computer in effect says: "Master - your bidding is my command!" - and in the field of home education, it would be a very brave man indeed who could put limits on what computer can accomplish. Computer has put at our service a totally submissive intelligence of enormous power. Educationally, computer offers the reward of intellectual gold by providing a broad highway to much sought after qualifications for school-age students of either sex, an unrestricted access route to the achievement of success for adult students, and a refreshingly cool pathway to mental rejuvenation for the retired user.

Whatever the gaps one might have in one's education, the wealth of programs available now provides pleasant-tasting medicine for all schoolwork casualties - a panacea for almost all educational problems.

The intellectual treasure trove merely begins with the entertainment of educational games designed to stimulate your mind power generally. From there, it goes on to innumerable straight schoolwork programs on everything from Japanese syllabaries to hot tips on how to handle mathematical probability questions ... and graphics art programs designed to cultivate the ability to appreciate and express an awareness of beauty.

Curriculum-based programs are merely a small part of what is included in the homeschooling resources available for computerised education. The resources already include the Worldwide Marae cyberspace penpal centre designed to foster peace and friendship by international correspondence amongst penfriends all over the planet - and if the pilots or passengers of any passing UFO would care to leave their address, the penpals available on computer would no doubt include correspondents all over the galaxy before long!

The educational discs currently available also include self-hypnosis software designed to help you to give yourself the power and attitude of mind you need to cultivate and develop whatever abilities and capacities you seek - happiness, love, a sense of excitement, heightened powers of telepathy and e.s.p. (extra-sensory perception), health strengthening skills of yoga and meditation, a longevity nurturing life-style, ... or almost any treasure you might set your heart on short of eternal youth, actual immortality or true perpetual motion!

A few years ago there was an idea around that computer was mainly good for teaching Mathematics, and certainly this is one field in which computer excels. For a human teacher to inculcate something as complex as the time tables, for instance, calls for almost infinite patience and ineffable good temper - not qualities for which the human race is likely to go into the inter-galactic book of records, but qualities which Computer possesses in abundance. Like many other parents and teachers, John and Rosalind Stinchcombe (the Directors of Educator Discs), originally experienced some difficulty (and that's putting matters mildly!) when confronted with the job of teaching the times tables to their two sons. They programmed their computer in various ways, until they hit upon some methods that actually worked in a home-schooling environment. With this software, the boys soon not only gained complete mastery of their tables, but also became downright eager for more and more Maths programs. Programs on long-division, subtraction, simple algebraic equations, quadratic equations, simultaneous equations, cubic equations, triangle geometry, circle geometry, trigonometry, logarithms, etc., followed swiftly; and it was no surprise when the two boys each took School Certificate Mathematics successfully - one at the age of thirteen, and the other at the age of twelve - at a time when School Certificate in New Zealand was a Fifth Form examination, normally taken at the age of fifteen plus! That is the kind of acceleration that computer makes possible!

Detailed information pages about all the many individual subjects covered, of relevance to home schooling, are now accessible from the Educator Discs Main Page and Site Directory (see link below) and can often give home-schooling families some insight into the huge range of valuable home-schooling resources available here.
