|content=This popular guidebook, now released as below, provided content for the drive to adopt technology for teaching science in classrooms. It collected countless ideas for using IT tools in science and provided practical examples of how they can work to good effect. In summary, the ideas within are classified as follows: 
* Communicating – using graphics, publishing and word processing tools
* Handling information – using a spreadsheet or database
* Measuring in science – using electronic sensors and data loggers
* Modelling ideas – using a spreadsheet; modelling software; simulation or animation
* The book pre-dated the use of the internet for communicating and research, hence the use of the term IT and not ICT in secondary science.

* Can collaborate with others and refine their work
* Can create a model to explore an idea
* Can use appropriate media and graphs to communicate their findings
* Are aware of the measuring tools available investigate to investigate an idea
* Compare their findings with those of others across the world
