There are also maps showing the provinces and regions of Canada, which the user can click on to link to information about that area. There are exercises and activities at the end of each module, quizzes, a basic word processor feature and a dictionary.
An accompanying teacher's manual explains the program and offers advice for lesson plans to integrate to Explore Canada into thematic units common to the literacy and ESL classroom.
