JOFA has created an interactive CD-ROM that women and men can use to learn the cantillations for reading Megillat Esther. The CD-ROM can be used either on a computer or on an audio CD player. On a computer, the user can practice by following along with the megillah text, while they listen to the layner. An easy to use navigation system allows the user to replay desired sections, both with and without the cantillation marks appearing on the screen. The CD also includes instructions on how to organize a megillah reading, a halakhic discussion of the sources for women's reading of the megillah, a dvar Torah about the Book of Esther and more.
