DESCRIPTION

This explores the positive and negative of Kidspiration. This presentation was designed as a group project for a graduate class at the Univ. of South Carolina. Views expressed are not necessarily those of USC. (sorry for the not-so-great audio...I have terrible allergies during the early spring!!)
