Kitt - the Learning Companion
Kitt enables learners to work independently, engaging with the robot to gather evidence of progress. Teachers can differentiate effectively using Kitt by personalising the resources on each device. Inclusivity and accessibility is at the heart of Kitt’s design. Teachers are able to customise each Kitt to the needs of his user through, adjustment of volume and brightness, full control of haptic feedback and utilisation of voice prompts. Kitt includes a braille cell on the centre button for ease of use. Kitt behaves like a Flash memory stick. When connected to a computer, either via USB cable (provided) or docking station, teachers can drag and drop audio, video and image files directly onto the robot. These can then be viewed and/or listen too, using the controls on Kitt’s tummy. Audio recording – learners can record an audio response directly to Kitt, during the recording Kitt’s eyes will engage with and motivate the learner. Once the recording has finished, learners can listen back and if necessary, erase the recording and start again. This could be reading a book or providing verbal answers to questions. Photograph – learners can complete their work by hand (crafting, painting, writing in a book or a mini whiteboard etc.) and use Kitt to photograph their work. When the photo mode is selected, Kitt will count down 3,2,1 and mirror the camera in his display – to allow the user to make sure everything is in frame. Images can be viewed and deleted if necessary using Kitts menu. Video recording – If the activity is more dynamic, such as playing an instrument, performing a dance routine, completing a science experiment or if the learner needs to “show and tell”, a video recording may be more appropriate. When learners select to record a video, Kitt will count down 3,2,1 and mirror the video recording in his screen for the benefit of the user. Recorded videos can be accessed, viewed and deleted through Kitt’s menu options. Specifications: 8GB SD card included Height:13.5 cm Width:8 cm

Positive Affirmations Heart for Teens and Young Adults
Each time the heart is pressed one inspiring affirmation will play at random. Talking Hearts will help your children to develop healthy thinking patterns that will boost confidence, self-esteem and wellbeing. "I am loved, I am smart, and I will never give up". As children go through their developmental stages, these types of words and feelings are fundamental, and should be instilled within their belief systems. Unfortunately, the human mind tends to favour negative self-talk. However, this doesn’t mean children should talk down to themselves and allow those negative thoughts to marinate. Positive affirmations are short and concise statements that individuals repeat to themselves to challenge those negative thoughts and instil positive alternatives. These self-affirmed statements are positively weighted and foster a positive outlook in a person’s mind and belief system. Product details 30 pre-recorded positive affirmations to inspire your children Easy to use - Just press to play One single affirmation will play at random each time the heart is activated Option to record your own messages using the built-in microphone Option to download your own MP3 sound files using the built-in USB socket Includes rear wall mounting holes and a lanyard loop Battery power: Requires 3 x AAA batteries, (not included) Colour: Purple Size: 85 x 85 x 25mm

Communication for refugees: Arabic
Vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Flüchtlingssituation in Europa wurde ein zweisprachiges Kommunikationsheft entwickelt, um auch geflüchteten Menschen mit ausgewählten Themen und den dazugehörigen Symbolen (PCS-Thinline) Unterstützung im Sprechen und Verstehen zu leisten. Die Beschriftung der Symbole ist Arabisch-Deutsch. Kommunikation bedeutet immer Interaktion zwischen zwei oder mehr Menschen. Deshalb soll das Heft im Hosentaschenfornat (DIN A6) nicht nur geflüchteten Menschen helfen sich mitzuteilen, sondern auch allen potenziellen GesprächspartnerInnen wie zum Beispiel medizinischem Personal, VerkäuferInnen, MitarbeiterInnen von Behörden oder auch Nachbarn oder ganz einfach Freunden. Ganz bewusst ist dieses Heft deshalb dialogisch aufgebaut: Der Nutzer / die Nutzerin kann z.B. über sich erzählen, aber auch Fragen stellen, wie es dem Anderen geht oder welche Interessen er oder sie hat. In der Situation „Beim Arzt“ kann das medizinische Personal dem/der HeftnutzerIn zeigen, was passieren wird, um Ängste oder Reaktionen zu vermeiden, die sich aus individuell empfundenen Grenzüberschreitungen ergeben könnten. Um die Akzeptanz zu erhöhen, gibt es jeweils eine Fassung für Frauen und für Männer, die sich auch inhaltlich unterscheiden. Neben der Leserichtung des Arabischen von rechts nach links wurde auch die Blätterrichtung angepasst.
