An MSc student here is writing a hypercard application to help teach
bone identification to archaeology students as his dissertation. Could
anyone who knows of applications specifically for teaching (especially
if they are for archaeology), especially if there is something
published about it contact him on

ayp202@uk.ac.soton.ibm

or me on 

kl88a@uk.ac.soton.ecs.

Basically, he wants to have a brief chapter discussion other hypercard
applications and the use of them in teaching generally.

Thanks,       Kris Lockyear.

Kris, 

WGBH Boston produced an inter-active video learning tool for children based on
a NOVA program, using hypercard. You could write to:

Jeff Miller
WGBH Educational Foundation
125 Western Avenue
Boston, MA 02134

Another resource might be the Bank Street College of Education's Center for
Children and Technology. They work mostly in the IBM environment but may have
done some hypercard stuff. One of Bank Street's major projects was about the
archaeological site, "Palenque."

Good luck!
