But the Plus! version is also interactive - it talks, kids can use it themselves - drag and drop and switch access - brilliant on interactive whitboards or large plasma screen - you could make symbol quizzes, language activities, on screen work sheets, homework exercises etc. And you never know, you may change your mind later and see a use for the new interactive possibilities of BoardMaker Plus! I've got BoardMaker 6 - why might I want the Plus! version? Well, it's not necessary IF all you ever want to do is make print-based symbol materials. (You MAY still be able to get it through third party suppliers, for now.) I don't want to pay for extra features I'll never use! I know, it's really annoying! But this LTS deal may take some of the pain out of it.

The old paper only version looks set to fade away quietly.

Why can't I just upgrade my print-only BoardMaker? A marketing decison by Mayer-Johnson, it seems. I've got BoardMaker 5 - why might I want V6? Lots of nice features such as 'Swap Button', easier photo importing, easier resizing, and the magical 'symbolate as you type' tool. In case you are unclear - here's a few basic questions and answers.

The offer is only for the latest version, BoardMaker Plus! V6, which is the ordinary print-based BoardMaker 6 plus some new interactive features (see below). BoardMaker purchasing information has been pretty muddled lately, so the new clarity is welcome, as well as the discount. Hurrah! At last Mayer-Johnson UK and LTS have got their act together and brought out a cheap deal on BoardMaker for Scotland.ĬALL has been pushing for this.
