PsiTeach Reviews

This is where I will review various software, commercial, shareware or freeware. Hopefully I'll be able to suggest ways of using them in Educational settings.

If you are a software developer for S3a/Pocketbook II computers, please let me know, and I'll certainly have a look. Similarly let me know your thoughts on the software you use.

Shareware

• Wanting to link Agenda to Microsoft Outlook? PsiSync is the answer (see also my tips for using PsiSync with your timetable Agenda)
• If you acquire shareware for your Psion, it invariable arrives in a ZIP file. The usual way to install it is to unzip the file on a desktop machine and then copy the contents across using PsiWin. However, there is an alternative in PsiZip, a Psion based ZIP file manager.
• Managing multi-part documents is tricky, but Titch is a shareware drawing app which allows documents to be hyperlinked and opened from within the program.

Freeware

• For making presentations, or timing lessons, Slide is a highly polished work. (see also my tips for teaching with slide)
• Many scientific calculators draw graphs of equations. Add this capability to your Psion with Graph.
• Sophisticated file management on a 3a isn't the most straightforward procedure, but 3T makes it much easier.
