SwitchIt!
People Extra (Who Help Us) can be used in 3 different ways:
Event
Sequences: 12 little animations each based upon a simple
theme such as lunchtime assistant. 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.
SwitchIt!
People Extra has been designed to develop and demonstrate understanding
of cause and effect through pressing a switch (or other input
device) to build a scene.
Choose
how many steps it will take for each scene to be completed.
You
set the length of reward after each switch press.
Picture
menu allows children to choose scenes for themselves.
Animated rewards motivate success. In order to facilitate ease
of use in an inclusive environment, SwitchIt! People Extra can
be configured for those who use...
-
one or two switches;
- a touchscreen or mouse;
- an IntelliKeys keyboard or;
- a Concept Keyboard.
Settings,
