After you have entered an activity, you still have the ability to change levels at any time by pressing the LEVEL key and typing in the level number that you want. NOTE : Because of their nature, the following activities do not have levels. CALCULATOR MELODY PLAY BACK MUSIC LIBRARY ANIMATION FUN TWO-PLAYER MODE The Talking Whiz Kid FRONTIERN learning unit provides an exciting two-player mode for many of the activities. There are two types of two-player modes, one is head to head competition and the other involves both players taking turns to answer questions. To be fair, the HELP key is disabled in the two-player mode. In the two-player mode, each player gets only one chance to answer each question correctly. Please note that in the two-player mode, there is a time limit in each activity to add a greater challenge. HEAD TO HEAD COMPETITION When a question is displayed, the two players need to press their corresponding player keys, PLAYER A or PLAYER B, as quickly as possible in order to answer. The first person to press his/her player key gets to answer first. If the first player cannot give the correct answer, the unit will encourage the second player to take the chance and answer the question. If the second player does not want to try answering the question that player can press the ANSWER key to see the correct answer. The following activities are available in Head to Head Competition.
