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 is designed to help switch users develop and demonstrate understanding of language concepts, as well as develop their ability to use switches.
SwitchIt! At Home 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 from nine different background colours for the scenes.
-Choose how many steps it will take for each scene to be completed.
-You set the length of pause between each scene.
-Visual, aural or time reminder.Animated rewards motivate success. In order to facilitate ease of use in an inclusive environment, SwitchIt! At Home can be configured for those who use:
- one or two switches;
- a touchscreen or mouse;
- an IntelliKeys keyboard or;
- a Concept Keyboard.Settings, or Preferences, can be saved and loaded at any time for use by a particular user. Suitable for all ages.
