The screensaver no longer does what its name says, namely saves screens. It educates! And it does so in a fun, unobtrusive manner, which is appealing to kids and adults alike. Cool Educational Software today announces Cool Educational Screensaver, a whole different class of screensaver that downloads easy-to-remember educational videos from its Internet server and plays them when the computer enters the idle mode. All educational videos are grouped into channels (e.g. Astronomy, Science, History, etc.). Every day you will get new educational video on previously selected theme. "We see screensavers as an opportunity not only to individualize computers but also satisfy the passion of many users for self-education," says Alexander Mozgovoy, CEO of Cool Educational Software. "The latest research shows that screensavers work for about 40% of the time the computer is on. Displaying educational information via a screensaver throughout the day is 4-5 times more effective than traditional learning methods at ensuring people remember. It"s what we call incidental learning and our screensaver is all about it. It shows some principle scientific and cultural information in geography, biology, astronomy in a casual way. If the person is constantly exposed to this information, there is no other chance but to absorb it!" Once installed, Cool Educational Screensaver opens into Content Wizard that lets you set up the delivery and playback of video. You can, for example, change channel preferences, select the next course to learn, disable background audio, play the default soundtracks or play any audio residing on your hard disk drive. Then you update the index of educational videos from the Internet, choose the subject you"re interested in and run the first lesson. The database is updated regularly - every day there are new educational videos ready for download! A sample educational video lesson about Mars presents basic planetary data, such as distance from the Sun, dimensions and information about satellites, atmosphere, temperature and internal composition. There are also some interesting cultural facts about Mars, pictures and photos of the planet. If you want something that"s very different and compelling running on your computer when you"re not working, then go visit www.cooleducationalsoftware.com for the educational experience that will never end. ### NOTE TO EDITORS: Please, let us know if you have questions or would like any additional information.
