SENSwitcher is a suite of programs designed to help teach early ICT skills to people with profound and multiple learning difficulties, those who need to develop skills with assistive input devices and very young children new to computers. It is, we believe the first time anyone anywhere has developed an online switch enabled application which targets ICT skills from purely experiential through cause and effect, switch building, timed activation, targeting and row scanning.

SENSwitcher has been designed as a progressive teaching and assessment tool and is accompanied by an 18 page set of teachers notes together with assessment records, developmental skills progression models and small step checklists linked to the QCA P Levels for ICT.

The program is available FREE to teachers, parents, care workers, if fact anyone who wants to use it. We hope you and your children enjoy it.

Thanks for a great piece of free software. I am working for a small AT charity in Taiwan and have used SEN Switcher many times. Just to let you know your efforts are also helping people on the other side of the world.

Hi I am a big fan of this page. I work with individuals learning to access technology for leisure and communication, has anyone had luck using this on an iPad?

Hi Michele, glad you're liking SEN Switcher. Unfortunately, due to Apple devices not supporting Flash (the software SEN Switcher was created in) it is unable to run on iOS devices. We are hoping to do an Apple-ready version of SEN Switcher some day - stay tuned to www.northerngrid.org

Thanks
