This Student 2008 package includes the full Encarta reference library 2008. Encarta hasn't got anything like the depth in articles as Encyclopedia Britannica Ultimate reference suite 2008, but I can't imagine many year 9 school children wanting a scholarly detailed account of the action of CD4+ lymphocytes when looking up AIDS. That's where Encarta scores, it's far more kid friendly with fun as well as facts - it's simply infinitely more entertaining than Britannica and ideal as a family reference. Encarta's greater brevity is just right for a younger audience, plus you get a free upgrade to Encarta Premium [on-line] but only until 31st October 2008 [where there's even help for A Levels]. We also have Britannia Reference Suite 2008 as well though - its greater depth suites well read adults, and it has good advice on homework as well, useful if you are helping your kids but a bit too dry for many under 16s to use on their own (and ironically Britannica has a strong US bias that is intensely irritating). Encarta still presents the information in a more fun way with better use of multi-media content such as instructional videos, games to aid learning and pretty twirling icon links. You need internet access as well though (Encarta & Britannica use it to update as well as web-link), although that's pretty essential for homework anyway.

Encarta even goes as far as integrating itself into Internet Explorer (and I often search it by mistake). This 'UK' version of Encarta is far more geared to the UK schools curriculum than Britannica, and Children's Encarta is re-written for primary school children, whereas Elementary Britannica has far too complex graphics, text and images simply borrowed from the main encyclopaedia. With both the Encarta or Britannica encyclopaedias you really need to sit down with kids under 14 and explain what is being said - and I have to say at these times we vote with the mouse and choose Student 2008 [Encarta] every time. Don't forget checking Children's [Primary School] Encarta in tandem though, as it puts things more simply which is ideal as an extra study aid for KS2 and KS3 (age 9 to 12). Why Encarta for schoolkids?: well search 'evaporation' in Encarta and you get the classic school science text book description with links to 'boiling point', 'condensation' and the visual browser, whereas under Britannica you get a detailed treatise on 'refrigeration'. Elementary Britannica still simply edits down adult information, making little effort to repitch it at the intended primary school level (e.g. Under 'Greenhouse effect', images of 'The Mossbauer effect: use in a spectrometer' appear).

Plus Encarta looks far far prettier as well. This Student 2008 package includes much more than Encarta though, there's 'learning essentials' templates, toolbars, tutorials and guides that help kick start any essay - with a wealth of information on how to construct essays. There's also guides to over 1,000 English literature set books (up 500 from Student 2007). Plus for maths there's an equation solver (basic algebra to calculus), graphs and help with complex sums. For languages there's spelling and dictionary translation, with help with writing sentences (using your words and verbs correctly with every tense). The languages French, German, Italian and Spanish are now supported - however the language dictionaries sadly seem to offer relatively few word translations. See Microsoft.com/student for more details.

Perhaps one downside is that the Encarta dictionary doesn't spell check so if your child miss-spells a word slightly, unlike Word, you don't get any help offered [although the dictionary does move to words that match the first few correct letters]. Student 2008 is only supplied on DVD though not CD - all the large box contains is the single DVD - you can install using another PCs DVD drive via a network if your kids PC is CD drive only (or replace the CD drive).
