Feature Details: Automated Visual Cue Advancement


PointScribe motivates students as they learn to handwrite with visual cues that are not only fun, interactive and engaging, but more importantly, provide guidance for proper stroke sequence, start and stop points, and directionality for each stroke of each shape.

As the student's knowledge of each shape increases, PointScribe's Automated Visual Cue Advancement reinforces newfound skills by systematically removing these visual cues, ultimately teaching the student to write every letter, number, and shape properly and consistently --- from memory.

Visual Cue Advancement happens automatically and at the student's pace, because it is driven by proficiency data collected for that student.

Visual Cues  

Visual Cue Level -- Beginner
(Shape Levels 1 through 3)

Provides animated visual cues for:

  • Start and stop points for each stroke of a shape. (Intuitive Animated Pairs)
  • Directionality of each stroke. (Chase Diamond)
  • Stroke sequence (for multiple stroke shapes). (Crumb Trail)

Example:

  • At the Beginner Level, the student is provided with all of the visual information needed to properly write the first stroke of the uppercase "M."
  • PointScribe visually informs the student where to start and end the first stroke of the "M":
    • the student drags the baseball to the glove
    • the green diamond guides the student along the crumb trail in the correct direction
Visual Cues  

Visual Cue Level -- Intermediate
(Shape Levels 4 through 7)

Provides visual cue for:

  • Stroke sequence (for multiple stroke shapes). (Crumb Trail)

Example:

  • At the Intermediate Level, the student is provided with a visual cue (Crumb Trail) identifying the first stroke in the letter.
  • Start positions, stop positions, and directionality cues presented in the Beginner Level have been removed.
  • PointScribe requires the student to build on what he has learned by recalling where to begin and end each stroke and in which direction to write.
Visual Cues  

Visual Cue Level -- Advanced
(Shape Levels 8 through 10)

Provides no visual cues.

  • All visual cues have been removed.

Example:

  • At the Advanced Level, the student uses all he has learned in previous levels write the shape correctly: stroke sequence, start and stop position, and directionality of each stroke.
