Itemwriter programs all have similar appearances and work in a similar way. On startup, you (or the student) are asked to choose a level - easier, harder, or your own items- and a beginning item. You can also set the number of items displayed at once, increasing the number of students who can benefit from this program, and providiing a way to increase the difficulty of the items as a student improves. Itemwriter programs can also start an unfinished session where the student left off. Below is the main menu screen for Completing Familar Phrases.

Backgrounds and fonts are configurable, so you can choose the look you like! You can also choose to display session time and percentage correct (bottom). The program will keep these statistics even if not displayed so you can review the success of the student later. Below is a screenshot from Analogies.

You can also write your own items! Its easy...just fill in the text boxes with the item and possible answers. If you want (you don't have to), you can record the items so the student can hear them spoken. Just click the red button to record each item. You can modify any item or recording, and add new ones as needed. Below is the Itemwriter for Synonyms & Antonyms.

What else can you do? You can choose to save a session, including total time spent working, number of items attempted, percentage correct, and student name - and you can print out session information too! Students can be warned of items missed on the previous attempt - or listen to the item sets being spoken by clicking a "mouth." Pictured below is a screen from Drawing Conclusions.
