Microsoft Encarta Kids 2007's big, bright images invite you to wander. Student includes Encarta and on top of that, adds homework help, such as term-paper tutorials, foreign-language verb conjugations, a graphing calculator, and step-by-step assistance with equations, complete with answer keys.
If you're buying Encarta to help a child with classwork, you might consider paying a bit more for the $69.95 Student 2007. A dictionary and thesaurus are embedded within Encarta, but make sure to install the free Macromedia Shockwave to check out World Languages. But Encarta doesn't offer the equivalent of Britannica's GeoAnalyzer for comparing countries' statistics, although you can use Encarta's Customizer to fine-tune views of places. Other goodies include World Atlas's political, physical, and statistical views, as well as satellite imagery of the planet by night and day.
