As you may know if you’ve viewed our new 2012 Catalogue, we’ve added a great range of speaking and listening resources this year; one of which is the Talk Time Big-Point.

These large, bright, colourful talking buttons can record up to 30 seconds of sound each.  They also feature a removable clear top, so you can place letters, numbers or pictures inside to match the recording, making them a great multi-sensory product.  Being so easy to use, they are ideal for young children and their large size also makes them suitable for children with visual or motor skill impairments.

These could be used to create fun, interactive classroom displays, or to record sound effects and play back during storytelling, or for colour coded question and answer games… the list goes on!

Big-Points can be purchased individually or as a full set of 5 including one of each colour.  Click here to go to the product page.

Using a computer mouse is something most of us take for granted, but for young children trying to use a mouse for the first time, or for special needs children, it’s not always easy using a standard mouse.  So what is the best kind of mouse for a young child?  Or for someone lacking the fine motor skills needed to use a mouse?  To find out, you can read our brand new Buyer’s Guide to Mice which contains 6 top tips to help you choose the right mouse.

Most adults who regularly use computers have become familiar with the standard 104-108 key computer keyboard, but for children there’s a number of keyboards designed to suit their exact needs.  This new Buyer’s Guide provides practical advice on which keyboards are best suited to pupils of differing ages and abilities, and why.

Our ever-expanding range of visualisers has a new family member, the Optoma DC300i visualiser.  This stunning mid range visualiser combines advanced technology with ease of use, featuring powerful 9x optical zoom, a one touch auto focus button and a flexible gooseneck which makes positioning the camera a breeze.  Unlike some other visualisers, the DC300i can be operated without being connected to a computer, so it’s easy to display to the whole class by simply connecting the DC300i directly to a projector.

The DC300i is available now from our website for only £239.99; click here to go the product page.  Also, don’t forget we’re offering £10 off all visualisers until the end of January – just quote discount code Jan 12 when placing your order.

Projectors are an amazing teaching tool, especially when coupled with an Interactive Whiteboard.  But being a great form of technology, they bring with them a great amount of jargon.  Which is better: LCD or DLP?  What is ANSI lumens and how much of it do I need?  What is SXGA+?  What is Keystone Correction and do I need it?  Our new Projectors Buyer’s Guide answers all of these questions and more.  It also gives advice on choosing a suitable projection screen to go with your projector.

Technology is great, but it’s not always easy to understand exactly what it does;  especially not when the product descriptions usually contain more acronyms than an Army Newsletter.  Then there’s the sheer choice we have these days – just look at the mobile phone industry.  Sometimes it’s hard to know where to even begin.

We’ve often had schools contact us saying the same thing, which is why we wrote our first advice guide last year giving 7 Top Tips when buying new Headphones.  It was written to cut through the technical jargon and help schools to understand why you might want (or not want) certain features.

Now, we’ve written another Buyer’s Guide for Visualisers.  This guide contains 8 top tips which will explain the various specifications and features you might get in a modern visualiser, not in tech speak but in plain English.  We hope it will help you understand more about visualisers, but if you have any questions regarding visualisers then you can email support@wishtrac.com or call us for free on 08000 80 77 80.
