Teacher Testimonials

The software is a must for someone who has little knowledge of Electronics and wants to start teaching it and achieve 100% success with projects.

Paul Bexfield
Lynn Grove High School, Gt. Yarmouth

"In summary this is a product that has great potential for allowing students to develop their own competencies using electronics at K.S. 3 and K.S. 4………The product is innovative, easy to use and the exercises are well thought through and allow for student progression and differentiation"…….I wish the system every success and applaud its contribution to teaching a systems approach to designing electronic products and to providing students with a hands-on-approach to learning electronics". DATA review

Les Porter
Course Director for Industrial Design at Brunel University

"... a system for teaching electronics that is clear, logical and allows creativity..."

Tim Darters
Sir Harry Smith, Peterborough

"An excellent training opportunity to see a product which will really work in schools, which students will enjoy."

Kate Poynter
Head of Department Colne Community School & College Essex

"... it has allowed our pupils to be far more creative... Before this software was available to use we were only able to give the students a very limited choice of circuits and very little design took place apart from the obligatory casing/packaging. Quicklink enabled us to structure a more varied and valuable experience of real world electronics. This version also solves many of our needs for coursework ideas at K.S. 4."

T. Chapman
Head of Control Technology, Notley High School

"The QuickLink product is most impressive..."
(Recognising Real Design and Technology).

Professor Geoffrey Harrison
QCA Project Director RECORD&T

"Clear, logical System showing students sound knowledge base in a logical/progressive way to build confidence. Also enables structured experimentation ensuring a high level of success."

Tim Darters
Sir Harry Smith, Peterborough

"We have been evaluating QuickLink projects as part of the CARA2 nationally-recognised research project investigating creativity in electronics...based on pupil interviews all pupils found a quicklink-based project more engaging than a typical 'make this design' electrical project; further, most pupils think that Quicklink leads to greater choice and creativity than using a standard PIC-based circuit. .. it allows the pupil's flexibility of choice to customise their own circuits…. The use of a standard circuit board means that even with every pupil making their own personal design, you can maintain a standard stock of parts that all pupils can use, rather than having to order new parts for every class."

Paul Anderson
Head of Technology, Birkdale High School

"Both software and hardware show excellent potential within classrooms."
