I started using it a couple years ago, but there were bugs with it. The
site made extensive use of pop-ups and cookies that anti-virus software
interfered with. I was the only instructor at PAVCO that ever got it to
work. But if it works, it is great. Just remember that even if you can
get it to work, your students might have trouble with it.
