SwitchIt! Farm Extra can be used in 3 different ways:
-
Event
Sequences: 12 little animations each based upon farm animals
and rural life. Each sequence has 5 steps, carefully chosen
to maximise speaking and listening.
-
Picture
Building: build pictures and see them animate, or use the
one-step option for basic cause and effect.
-
Flash
Cards: flip through a selection of large pictures that relate
to the theme.
Also
included is a new Picture Menu. This will allow non-literate
students to choose which story or picture they would like
to play, from a selection chosen by the teacher or carer.
Learners
who use switches to access a computer need a range of software
in order to motivate them to develop their ability to use
switches. The computer can also give them relative independence
in learning new concepts. The SwitchIt! series from Inclusive
Technology is designed to help switch users develop and demonstrate
understanding of language concepts, as well as develop their
ability to use switches.
