Abstract	This British guide contains reviews of software available for Basic Skills, including English for Speakers of Other Languages, in both education and training for employment. In addition, it offers guidance on how to use software effectively to develop basic skills. Section 1 provides information about the following aspects of the guide: computers and compatibility, windows, software included, prices, suppliers, and types of software--content free, dedicated, drill and practice, computer-based learning and training, and multimedia. Section 2 categorizes the software for literacy into these groups: literacy, numeracy, work skills, word processors, databases, spreadsheets, integrated packages, and desktop publishing. Before the appropriate category, information is provided on using a word processor, using a database, using a spreadsheet, integrated packages, and desktop publishing. Each review is accompanied by this information in a sidebar format: make of computer, price, publisher, and availability. Over 150 software packages are reviewed. Three indexes are provided: subject, computer, and publisher. Addresses of British publishers and distributors are appended. (YLB)
