Hi,
Clicker 5 is a writing support and multimedia tool for students of all abilities and students with special needs. Clicker can be used as a support teaching and learning tool.
It uses a talking word processor and pictures to guide students through pre-determined learning activities. Clicker 5 is engaging for students who have been trained in usein it. It is not only used for writing but also reading. It incorporates talking books, multimedia presentations and labelling activities.
In 2007, I received training in the use of clicker and it was sucessfully used in our special education department regularly for a year. Over time it has not been used as much. It depends on the cohort and the teachers on staff. Many schools in the area still use clicker everyday. There is a comprehensive bank on the net for people to use freely and interact with.
Karen.
