The Robinson Curriculum
A Description
If you could only have one home school resource, this curriculum should be the one.
This CD-ROM includes a complete set of texts for grades 1-12, books you can print
yourself with your personal computer.
The curriculum was developed by an oustanding scientist and his wife for
their six home-schooled children with the help of their co-workers. The curriculum is
designed to be self-taught and to prepare children for the modern world
of science and technology.
In addition to a course of study and some special examinations, this curriculum requires
a large number of very high quality books - many of which are currently out of print or
otherwise hard to locate. A simple book list provided here or by them would,
therefore, be difficult to utilize.
The Robinson's have placed thousands of pages of the books they use to home school into computer image format for CD-ROM
distribution. Included software allows any family with a modern personal computer with a CD-ROM drive to
print copies of all books that they cannot otherwise obtain. These printed books are identical to the originals, since
they scanned the original pages.
Eagle's Evaluation
This is a brilliant idea! All home schooling families will benefit from this library of
classic texts on CD-ROM. No matter what other materials you are using for home schooling,
the Robinson Curriculum will prove valuable. If you plan on living out of North America or in
a rural area without a library, this CD-ROM collection of books is essential. Think of it
as a library you can fit in less than a shoe box of space. Eagle Academy highly
commends Dr. Robinson for the work he's done. We plan on integrating the books Dr. Robinson has made
available into Eagle Academy courses at all levels. You can visit the Robinson Curriculum
at the Oregon Institute for Science and Medicine on the internet and order your own copies of this fine curriculum, or you can order them at discount if
your family has a student enrolled in Eagle Academy at any grade level.
