* For larger groups, additional splitters and headphones / microphones are needed. Please contact us for quotes on the corre-
sponding set solutions.
** Consists of two essential cable sets
1.
Connects CD-player and/or computer line-out as input device (line-in) for the AlphaTrainer
2.
Connects the student microphone into MIC in of both the computer and the AlphaTrainer (i.e. needed for FLIC language
training (Foreign Language Acquisition with the Instinct of a Child). Different programs and modules on the PC allow for
audio recordings when using the AlphaTrainer.
Please note:
If you wish to record auditory information, use the LINE IN cable (the same or an additional one).
Plug the cable into the LineOut socket of the AlphaTrainer and the plug with a green mark into
the recording device.
The following accessories are available – please contact us if you have any questions regarding these
items:
•
splitter set for group training with 7 to 12 clients
•
Extension cord for microphones
•
Extension cord for headphones
•
Extension cord for shutter glasses
•
non-lateralization plug (to suppress the lateralization for the coach)
Additionally you need training materials matching your clients age and abilities.
Important:
1. Even with older clients, it is important to adapt training to the possibilities and abilities of the individual
client. More often than not it is mandatory to improve the client’s fundamental reading and perception
skills on a very basic level.
2. Audio material which is too fast for the client to follow, will cause frustration and be impair motivation.
3. A primary training goal is the improvement of fundamental neuronal capabilities. While the require-
ments for the individual training tasks often are high, the content level of the material intentionally is
kept low..
