Computing is essentially math on steroids. So, at first glance, it would seem no surprise that the recent report by the National Mathematics Advisory Panel would include computer-based instruction among its recommendations to address the "mediocre level" of math achievement by American students.
But the champions of computing in the classroom have hailed the math panel report as an encouraging win for their side. It suggests, they say, that computing should be seen as a valuable tool in mainstream education, like math and science, in kindergarten through high school curriculums.
Skewed and Reviewed have posted some early gameplay from the new remaster.
CCG writes - "I completed planetarian: Snow Globe in around 90 minutes. Thankfully, the price is very reasonable, and it can only go lower if they offer it on sale, making it an entirely fair value. Given the relatively short runtime and low price, it's a nice companion for fans of planetarian HD. I'm also pleased to say that the moral concerns are fairly light as well. If you enjoyed planetarian, then I'd say that planetarian: Snow Globe is worth your time. While you could probably play this one first if you must, I would probably recommend reading planetarian HD before this title."
In this case, it's quantity over quality.
