Exiting 2Simple Modelling Toolkit
2Simple Modelling Toolkit has been designed to provide task based modelling
opportunities for use in the classroom by pairs or small groups of children, and as such has
built in options and constraints to allow children to fully explore any given activity.
There are three options for exiting 2Simple modelling Toolkit, two for use by children, one
specifically designed to allow teacher intervention:
! Option 1 The children can choose to exit at any time using the Exit button to
return to the Activity menu screen, (Option 2 can be disabled using
the Teacher options).
! Option 2 The children complete the prescribed number of goes within a task
and are automatically returned to the Activity menu screen.
! Option 3 The teacher can force an exit by use of the teacher’s keyboard
shortcut, (recommended for teacher use only).
Note:
If you use the software in the classroom without customising the Default settings then
the ‘Exit’ button will be available on the menu bar of all activities. This allows children
to return to the activity menu at will. It is recommended that you amend the default
settings to remove this particular function when using the software in the classroom for
the first time or with young children.
Option 1: Exit using the Exit button
If you would prefer to allow the children to exit an activity at any time, you will need to
leave the ‘Allow immediate task exit’ option enabled in the Teacher options.
By choosing to allow immediate exit, you
will leave the ‘Exit’ button enabled on the
menu bar across all activities.
To exit from a task at any time,
• Click on: (Exit)
• Select:
To exit at the Activity Menu,
• Click on:
This will take you to the Credits screen
where you will be asked to confirm
whether you really want to quit or
return to the Activity Menu.
