CUSTOMISED FEATURES: Selection of Sets
Adults use a mouse to select specific sets or groups of sets from a simple interface. The child then uses the switch to go from one sound to another. The sounds are short and attention grabbing with graphics and animations that are bold and simple. This makes this CD-ROM ideal for children who cannot concentrate for long.

APPLICATION: Suitable for children of all ages, especially those with short attention spans and vision impairments. The variety of short sound effects and simple graphics keeps children`s attention.
Sights and Sounds Press No. 1 is targeted at the following age ranges:
Early Primary
Mid Primary
Upper Primary

COMMENTS: Independent Use
Once the child can press the switch on cue, they can use parts of the program independently as the sets and groups of sets keep repeating until the mouse is used to return to the Home page. Mouse-using children will also have fun using this CD-ROM on their own or alongside the switch-using child.
Mouse Access for Children using Switch Software
Although this CD-ROM has been specifically designed for use with a switch, it can also be enjoyed by mouse-using children, especially those with short attention spans and vision impairments.
