'Interactive Resources : Maths Pack One'

All the activities in Maths Pack One are designed to run directly from a hard drive or CD in full screen. As such the quit buttons on the online evaluation materials do not work. On the full version they will return the user to a main menu ( See above ). To attempt to appreciate how the material will look in full screen, on a whiteboard or projector, press 'F11'.
