Science, Maths and Technology v-gadget pack Overview

This product consists of 100 highly interactive v-gadgets that cover topics in Maths, Science and Technology for both the English Curriculum ( KS1-2 ) and the Scottish Curriculum ( P1-P7 ).

Although this pack uses voting technology, the v-gadgets enable pupils to use the handsets in completely new and innovative ways e.g. to provide sequences, specify coordinates, respond to surveys and much more.

Facilities are provided for the teacher to display correct answers at appropriate times. Voting results can be viewed in a variety of formats (e.g. tally charts, pie charts and bar charts) to facilitate data analysis in real-life situations. Where appropriate, results are logged for teacher analysis at a convenient time.

Accessing e-gadgets within the e-gadget workshop

Access to all of our e-gadgets is by means of our own browser that we call the "e-gadget workshop". The relevant e-gadgets for a particular pack or for the library are located in folders that can be seen in the browser on the right hand side of the screen.

When a folder is selected the e-gadgets within that folder are represented by thumbnails at the lower right. Dragging or double clicking the thumbnail will open the associated e-gadget on the main part of the screen or "stage". This applies to any type of e-gadget.
