Ask Oscar is the ideal application to help develop children's skills in using a branching database. The application allows children to create branching trees containing either pictures, text or both.
This classroom tool uniquely allows you to create, sort, edit and view the tree all in one single display. Children can visually see the tree growing as they enter their questions and perform sorts.
Options allow trees to be tiled across many pages to create a large wall display, or printed continuously* as a banner.
Items can be printed separately from the tree, creating an additional resource that can be used away from the computer
* Banner printing requires a printer which supports this feature.
Here are some key features of "Ask Oscar":
Each item smoothly glides across the screen as the tree is sorted
Items can have a pictures associated
Whole groups of items can be quickly added to the tree from a wide range of picture groups. The picture groups can also be customised
As the tree grows it automatically scrolls to where it is being sorted
Ask Oscar encourages many types of learning activities by using its features of sorting, finding and testing
The tree can be viewed at different scales
A configurable on-screen actor can help children find their way around the application, offering help and suggestions and explaining how each of the buttons work.
