DE2502437A1 - Reading teaching device with illuminated display - successive sections of display selectively illuminated via manual switch unit - Google Patents

Abstract

The teaching device comprises a longitudinal rectangular housing with an interchangeable display panel, e.g. a plastics sheet, located behind the hinged transparent plate forming the front of the housing. The display panel is divided into a number of sections, each with the same height and the same width, excepting one section e.g. the first section, which is wider than the others. The housing contains a number of light bulbs fixed to a common support one bulb being positioned behind each section of the display panel and with a switching unit for selectively illuminating the light bulbs.

Description

Patent and utility model registration of my reading learning and reading practice device - "Reading box" The basic idea behind the construction of this device was the treatment of those with poor read-write capabilities To make elementary and special school children more effective, more rational and more complete, than is possible with conventional learning and work equipment. With this device can do all conceivable structure-creating read-write exercises without time Interruption, can be carried out without additional effort. The exercise opportunities will be counted exactly as below.

An invaluable benefit is that this device has both by the teacher as well as by the students themselves in the context of group and partner work can be operated. Due to the electromechanical construction of this apparatus and The signaling effect of the light is always stimulated to new tubes. This Exercise effect is not achieved by any conventional learning and exercise device that so far was used in elementary and special schools. This device was created in the summer of 1971. To this day, it has often been used and learned and its motivability determined on student, its effectiveness and economic use.

Special advantages are the low workload of the teacher and the fact that this device does not cause any new dyslexic errors can be, as is very easy when using word images from individual letters is possible.

This device is equally suitable for synthetic and analytical Methods for both writing and printing.

Exercise options: 1. Build-up and dismantling, combined with exact Making sounds (successions exercises) 2. Complementary exercises for incomplete words - syllable puzzles 3. Looping together of consonants and vowels to form syllables 4. Generalisatons and Discrimination exercises 5. Separating words 6. Memory exercises through fast Uncovering and covering the writing by placing two on top of or next to each other Reading boxes becomes even more effective.

The reading box consists of an elongated box measuring 90 cm x 35 cm (depth) x 30 cm. Inside it is divided into eight compartments - seven The same size and a larger compartment for the initial letters - through partitions (9). Behind each compartment there is a maintenance bulb (C1Q) with the plug (6) and the control box (5) is in connection. The pear (10) can be a starch from 25 to 40 watts. Thre version is exactly in the middle of the intermediate board, it (11) attached. The box can be opened and closed at the front with a crystal-clear pane made of plexiglass (shatterproof) (7), which is attached by means of several hinges is attached to the lower edge of the box (4). In the middle outside on the edge of the plexiglass disc (7) a handle is attached. The disc is held in place by a magnetic holder or a snap lock. A ground glass screen (8b) is placed behind this row of p] exiglass (7). Between The ground glass (8 b) and the box opening become a crystal-clear, labeled plastic sheet (8 a). When the box is closed through the plexiglass panel (7), the Foil (8 a) pressed firmly and straight onto the end faces of the partitions (9).

If this is not switched on in any or all of the subjects, it arises a sharp image (3) on the front of the screen, which can be generated by pressing the switch can be deleted and displayed again at will.

If the ground glass (8b) is placed behind the labeled film (8 a), in this way, the letters can be recognized even when it is not illuminated.

This is important when students operate this machine. The teacher on the other hand, it is easier to remember the individual letters and these through the screen (8 b) leave shielded.

The labeling of the film (8 a) is best done through water-insoluble felt-tip pens. There is a fine line pattern on the back of the film (8 a) recorded, which helps the teacher, quickly and precisely the letters (3) - matching to be drawn in for the individual subjects. The letters recorded in this way can erased again with commercially available solvents and the film (8a) re-labeled will. You can also use multiple slides. The foils (8 a) are crystal clear, resistant 1 / s mm - imm thick acrylic glass panes (Plexiglas) or, similar commercially available plastic films.

The inside of the box and the compartment dividers (9) are painted black, to enable a sharply contrasted image. The cables that come with the switches (5) connected are protected by a hose (very elastic).

Claims (4)

Patent and protection claims 1. Reading learning and training device characterized by precisely measured and cut-offs of equal width, height, and length, except for one larger compartment. 2. Reading learning and exercise device determined by lightbulbs (10), which, a pear for each compartment, in the middle of the rear wall (11) of each one Compartment are attached. These pears (10) can, by means of a switch box (5) can be faded in and out. The switch box has the same number of switches as Pears or fans. Each compartment can be illuminated separately. 3. Learning to read and exercise device characterized by a crystal clear Plastic disc (7), which ilnd with the help of hinges (4) and snap lock Handle (; ') can be opened and closed. 4. Reading learning and exercise device determined by one with a writing line image provided, writable film (8a), optionally screened by a Natt disc can be. This film (8a) is firmly attached to the partition walls through the plastic window (7) (9) to enable a sharp image.
