digital presentation and teaching tool that is connected a projector and an interactive whiteboard. When any object or thing is placed onto the visualiser viewing base it is enlarged onto the projection screen or interactive whiteboard for every student to see.
Visualiser allows any document to be shown, from a students work or 3D artifacts to the science experiment samples. Teachers can annotate on the images sown on the screen or the board, zoom in and out, get different views and angles and capture still shots with the help of the visualiser. The teachers found they could communicate the subject matter with greater impact and increased student participation with the visualiser. Teachers identified different ways of teaching using visualiser; demonstrations could be given to the entire class without them crowding round the subject, developing time for creating teaching resources was greatly reduced as there was less need to scan books and other resources.
The visualiser is extremely good at visualising pupils how to use tools and techniques that would be difficult to present to a group, such as the use of a compass in a maths class or parts of an electronic circuit board. Visualiser is a really incredible presentation tool for showing and annotating on the students work to the remaining of the class and for live evaluating the students work. More and more schools, colleges and universities are becoming familiar with a visualiser and finding them a truly wonderful visual teaching aid to enhance lessons.
