This software comprises 200 unique maze puzzles set on
the home planet of the charming alien, Scally. There are 25 levels of
of challenge in each of the planet’s eight environments,
The levels progress from straightforward introductory tasks, ideal for young
children and those with special educational needs, to more complex puzzles demanding creative, lateral and/or divergent thinking. Purpose-designed material explains how to use the pack’s resources to develop thinking skills through
practicing the processes of analyzing, understanding, remembering and applying.
Scally's World of Problems encourages a co-operative approach to problem-solving, and when
children have familiarized themselves with the roles of all the maze icons, they can be further stretched to create their own puzzles for others to tackle. This takes the activity and the learning beyond problem-solving into the creative process, drawing on imagination and planning skills.
