"My name is Harry, I have used the cre8txt whilst in hospital it is a very handy device. The cre8txt works just like a mobile phone, the best thing about this device is that if you have a plaster on one hand you can use the other hand. Even if your right handed you still can use the other. It is very easy to get used to, it only takes five minutes. The age group that I would look for is most probably eleven and over. When I first saw the device I was thinking it would be difficult to use but I was wrong.
 
I personally think that this device is very handy. And it does help people in hospitals a lot. There isn't anything negative about the cre8txt, I had tried using the laptop with a drip on my right hand but it didn't work out. I would rather use the cre8txt than a laptop."

The cre8txt keyboard mimics a mobile phone text keypad and so captures the skill that nearly all of our young people have taught themselves and turns that into a benefit you can use in the classroom.
 
The keyboard also comes with word prediction software, the same sort of assistance that young people are used to when composing messages on their mobile phones. The cost for both the keyboard and the software together is only £42.54 plus VAT.
 
One reviewer recently wrote
"this is technology at its best .... By mimicking a mobile phone, the cre8txt taps into skills pupils enjoy using outside of the classroom and provides an inclusive alternative to the standard keyboard".
 
If you would prefer to use your own QWERTY keyboard and just take the desktop prediction tool software from us then the cost is £25.52 plus VAT.
 

"Without exception, it improved the writing outcome for all pupils using it."

A Hand-Held Keyboard that improves the writing and spelling skills of all the children that use it

For those seriously interested in raising pupil standards, we want to tell you about the brilliant cre8txt keyboard that is improving the writing and spelling skills of all the children that use it.
 
A bold claim, but one we are perfectly justified in making.
 
As a reviewer has already pointed out, this device captures the writing skills that so many young people have developed themselves using their mobile phones. It probably isn't going to surprise you to know that most young people can touch type at phenomenal speeds without even looking at their mobile phone.
 
So why don't we use this skill to develop language in our classrooms?
 
The word prediction software also includes an abbreviation translator that instantly converts any SMS slang like "cu" into "see you" in any Windows application. A wordbank is used to personalise the experience. We can even offer a software version designed for a USB Memory Stick, the users take the software and their personalised wordbank to any Windows computer without ever installing the application on a computer. A great value solution that allows the software to be taken home and used there. The software also supports assisted sentence construction, helping those that need it to finish writing a sentence. A great way of encouraging creative writing in a fun and supported environment.
 
More than one keyboard can be plugged into a computer at a time allowing for team writing or collaborative writing exercises, another brilliant way of motivating reluctant writers.
 
The keyboard is easily held comfortably in the hand or used supported by a desk or table, measuring just 10 cm long by 5 cm wide it is small enough for the tiniest of fingers and big enough for adult use.
