More on The Incredible Machine

So, here’s the WIkipedia entry.  There is actually a binder that was published, that has lesson plans.  I know, because it is sitting on my desk.

I’ve downloaded a copy and a program called DOS Box and am working on getting it setup so that the kids can play it easily.

If I got nothing else from the workshop — I’ve gotten this!  A program that entertains while teaching problem solving.
