"... children learn the fundamentals of the control language via Roamer's LOGO-like commands, then progress to using Control Console and more ambitious projects; all without having to tie up a computer system."
Chris Drage, Journalist and Primary School Teacher, London.

"It's not just the fact you don't need a computer, but the console can be taken to models the children have built. This helps classroom management enormously."
Phil Mann, IT Primary Advisor, Berkshire.


SENSCI

The new system that combines innovative design based on sound practical use with a price that defies belief. If you need more inputs or outputs simply link two together.

John Eastwood, Technology Advisor, Birmingham.

"The right product at the right price and exactly right for Keystages 2 and 3."
Geoff Howard, Technology Advisor, North Yorkshire.


"We have been asked to develop an adaptor for SenSci that will allow less able pupils to use the system and provide a means to use existing connectors. We are doing this at the moment. If you are interested please phone for details."
