Through the use of interactive lessons and geographic tools like maps, graphs, and charts, students will travel to every continent to learn about the land and its people.
As a part of a complete learning management system, world geography is a self-directed course infused with technology-based lessons, tools, and exercises to enrich learning for students and streamline instruction and administrative tasks for teachers.

The course units include text-based lessons, on and off-computer exercises, special projects, learning games, quizzes, and tests that appeal to today's digital generation and help teachers to evaluate progress and mastery of the materials.
