CalWORKs Invest Computer Lab

The CalWORKs Invest Computer Lab is interactive learning for the 21st century. In addition to classes and academic counseling, CCSF students can enhance their hours of independent study, thanks to the Invest Lab software available at six campus locations. The software titles Destinations and Rosetta Stone allows students to test their knowledge in a variety of subjects, and serves as a supplement to regular classes for students working towards their GED, as well as English as a Second Language (ESL) students who are improving their communication skills.

The material is presented in a user-friendly manner, engages the student, providing a pleasant and effective learning experience. The Destinations software can be very valuable for any student (or instructor) who wishes to enhance knowledge on a wide range of subjects, from balancing a checkbook to preparing for a job interview.

The Rosetta Stone software offers ESL students an opportunity to enhance their reading, listening and verbal skills, and allows students to record and compare their pronunciation to recorded samples. A visual interface, with written examples and detailed images, takes the frustration out of learning a new language.
