Easiteach Widgets and development
The software’s easily accessible toolbars and widgets also allow you to work quickly and efficiently in creating whole-class teaching activities to fit with your class learning objectives. Easiteach is an ongoing development and will be enhanced with a range of new features over time. See our development page to find out more about which features are currently available and what to expect in future releases.
Easiteach has a range of key features, which make it the ideal software application for whatever hardware your school may use for whole class teaching purposes, including:
Features
- Multi-device
Easiteach works on all interactive whiteboards and will soon be available for use on other forms of hardware equipment used for teaching for example classpads, netbooks or voting devices. This means that no matter what equipment is used in your school, Easiteach can ensure consistency for training, teaching and sharing resources. The ability to import and export Easiteach documents as .iwb files also means you are not restricted by the software
- Easiteach Lite
Easiteach Lite is a free player, with limited features (such as word wallet and annotation pens), that allows users to open and view Easiteach documents. Easiteach Lite is great for enabling pupils to access saved activities at home, complete them as homework and resubmit them to their teacher, without needing access to the entire product.
- Multi-language
Easiteach Next Generation is available for users in a wide variety of languages, with settings easily changed depending on which language you want to work with in just a few clicks. Already Easiteach next Generation has been localised for a number of languages with more to follow.
- Multi-touch
Supports object manipulation on multi-touch devices, enabling users to enlarge and manoeuvre objects they have created with the tips of their fingers! This is ideal for encouraging pupils to interact directly with the interactive whiteboard and is perfect for use during presentations.
- Easily-accessible toolbars
The toolbars within Easiteach Next Generation have been designed to make the functionality you want easier to find and aid cross-curricular use. These easily-accessible toolbars allow you to work quickly and efficiently in creating whole-class teaching activities to fit with your learning objectives. The most commonly used tools can be found in the main navigation bar along the bottom of your screen, with extra functionality available from within the main navigation.
- Record sound and video
Within Easiteach Next Generation, users are able to record sound and video directly on to a page. Using the media bank you can also capture images, record sounds and record videos using external hardware, such as microphones or digital cameras, and add them to your page and your personal media bank.
- Handwriting and Shape Recognition
Write words or draw shapes freehand and the writing and shape recognition tools within Easiteach Next Generation will recognise your markings. You can either write or draw images with your mouse on a computer screen, or use your interactive whiteboard pen, and the handwriting and shape recognition tool will transform your markings in typed copy or shaped objects with sharpened edges
- Language tools
There are a wide variety of language tools built-in to Easiteach Next Generation that will help you to quickly and simply create activities for your whole class. These tools include a cloze tool (for creating missing words activities), remove punctuation tool (ideal for testing punctuation knowledge by removing all punctuation from a block of text and asking your class to put it back in the right place) and word wallet (for use alongside the cloze and remove punctuation tools).
