The teacher can create new content or edit the included materials and integrate the changes using the configurable menu system.

The "Learning Plate Tectonics With Data" CD is the first "Learning With Data" product.
The LearningWithData CD is suitable for use in a computer lab, as a lecture aid for teachers, or as a resource for students to use on their own computers.
