Cultural Roots Multimedia Knowledge Base is a multimedia product looking at the cultural history of the worlds population. Volume One contains information on, The Ten Sikh Gurus, The Punjabi Language, The Black Pioneers and Islands of the Caribbean.

The general themes of the disk can be placed under the headings of People, Places, Beliefs and Lifestyles. CRMKB provides a rich overview of some aspects of African Caribbean and Sikh culture and history and fully utilises the multimedia format with music, sounds and animations.

We have used Timelines, Games and Quizzes to make the learning fun and engaging for young children, the target audience, but many adults find the information and activities are an entertaining way of learning about their own and others cultures.

The disc is dual format and will play on IBM-PC and Apple Macintosh computers using Windows 3.1, Windows'95/98 and NT or MacOS System 7.0 and later.

CRMKB costs £19.98 inc VAT and P&P. You can order it by contacting us.
