the Ministry of Education of Costa Rica, which aims at
implementing educational activities to promote learning and
facilitate access to new learning tools through the use of
information technologies and communication.
JClic is developed in the Java platform, is a
free software project and works in different
environments and operating systems.
Playing the activities in an applet
An applet is an object embedded in a web page. The projects that are seen this way do not remain stored in the hard disk: JClicdownloads it, uses it and finally deletes it.If the JClic applet does not start, probably your computer's Java needs to be updated. It's also advisable to take a look at a page on the process of applet downloading.
Installing the activities
JClic has a wizard which allows you to download the activities and put them in the projects library of the computer. The library is created the first time JClic is started, or when you try to do the first installation of a project.To see the projects in the library you will need to download and install JClic.As in the previous case, if the installer does not start automatically you must check the Java system of your computer.
