| description |
Interactive CD-ROM activity from the ARGUS collection, in Macromedia Director/Shockwave format. This activity includes four sections: choosing appropriate weights for factors influencing site selection decisions, assigning points for some real places, calculating totals and interpreting results, and two messy questions. The activity ends with a discussion on other important criteria for site selection. |
