Each section is automatically marked for them and a running total of each individual student's score is kept. Through this, students can see where they need to work harder and can set their own programme for further revision.

Each CD-ROM is for individual use, however, network versions are available through your local distributor, or Young Digital Poland who are the software developers of the Reward CD-ROM.
