Train Tracker vs AboutNumbers PRO

Train Tracker is a simple but addictive inclusive game for all ages with a great plus – switch access options for single and two switch users. Choose your train and then build a track from a choice of straights, curves and cross-over tiles. Select ‘play’ and your engine and coaches, full of passengers, will steam around your track with great sound effects. Select ‘stop’ to alter or extend your layout. Select the ‘snapshot’ button to add a picture of the current layout to your gallery – enabling you to keep a record of your favourite tracks. Compare them with friends to see who can build the best and biggest layout! The easy to use interface and “snap in place” feature makes Train Tracker an accessible game which will help develop perceptual and planning skills. Switch access options with simplified scanning can be used at a ‘cause and effect’ level as well as allowing the user to build more complex systems. Key features: • Simple, engaging and addictive for all users, not just train fans! • Switch access for single and two switch users. • Snapshot feature to take a picture of your favourite tracks. • Can help to develop thinking, problem solving and perceptual skills. • Compatible with all currently available switch interfaces (See our App Support page for more information). • Runs in landscape mode only.

AboutNumbers is an early math application aimed at dealing with counting, sets, numbers and calculating in the number domain up to 10. An important feature throughout the entire applications is the structured representation of sets (2 lines and 5 columns) to facilitate non-counting strategies of recognizing sets, the understanding of the relation among numbers and the notion of numbers in general. AboutNumbers for iPad is available in 2 versions: - AboutNumbers: Only a limited number of exercises can be used. An In-App Purchase is required to use all exercises. - AboutNumbers PRO: All exercises can be used without limitation. The application is designed for pre-school and elementary school children with or without impairments, for people with math deficiencies, as well as young people and adults with learning disabilities. The application contains a wide number of increasingly complex exercises. Each exercise is aimed to further a specific skill (e.g. counting or calculating). Completed exercises are recorded by the application to document the learning progress. To enable the use of this application with several people, a user manager is offered. Individual settings and results will be saved and can be loaded quickly. The exercises can be operated by alternative input devices such as external switches or eye tracking.
