Rad_Detect Version 1.2.
Acknowledgements.
Thanks are due to Computer Concpets for providing me with a copy
of their document processor software 'Impression'. Impression has
been used to produce the illustrated worksheets. Computer Concepts
are at Gaddesden Place, Hemel Hempstead, Herts., HP2 6EX.
Some of the pictures have been produced with the aid of Computer
Concepts 'Scan Light Junior'. The scanner was provided by ECS Computers,
Kettlewell House, Kettlewell Lane, Kings Lynn, Norfolk, to whom I owe many
thanks for their help and support in this project to produce Electronic
Scientific Support Material (ESSM).
Electronic Science Support Material (ESSM).
ESSM is aimed at the science teacher. Its purpose is to produce
high quality scientific pictures, worksheets, posters and at a later
stage technical pictures that are stored on disc. This material can
then be used and altered by teachers to suit their own needs. The
material is copyright free, it may copied and passed on providing the
copyright notice (see below) is observed. The cost of the material is
intended to be about the price of a disc.
In the past teachers have spent many hours producing printed
information/worksheets/diagrams for pupils. Subsequently other
teachers have used them but found that they did not quite meet their
own requirements, or the original author found that the 'goal posts'
had been moved, necessitating the material to be re-written. It
occurred to me that if this work was done on a computer then it would
be easier to tailor the material to suit individual needs. Until
recently such work has been limited to text only, but with the
development of the Archimedes and cheap, high quality, easy to use
scanners such as Computer Concepts 'Scan Light' and 'Scan Junior',
pictures can easily be put into a computer. Now pictures and text can
be combined using desk top publishing (DTP) software, such as Computer
Concepts 'Impression', (which is technically a document processor,
capable of wordprocessing and desk top publishing) to produce a
printed illustrated document. However, as the information is also on
disc it can be easily altered to suit an individual teachers needs.

'Impression'. The Pictures directory contains the diagrams that are in
the illustrated worksheet.
