Manual editor
On the one hand, if you start this editor to create a new exercise, the next window will appear.
In that window, you will be able to select the language of the exercise and the number of empty image-sound pairs that will be added to the new exercise.
On the other hand, if you start this editor to open an already existing exercise, the manual editor will be shown with all the information of the exercise.
Components description
The following image shows the main window of the manual editor of exercises "To pair sound-image".
As it is observed in the previous image, the zone of edition of the exercises contains three panels: Image-sound Pairs , Images and Sounds .
Image-sound pairs panel
In the top of this panel there is a toolbar that allows to make operations on the pairs and to change the configuration parameters of the exercise.
Under that toolbar, the image-sound pairs that have been added to the exercise are shown. Every row represents an image-sound pair of the exercise. This panel also contains four columns that describes the current state of every pair: Image , Sound , Correct and Complete .
- Image: It shows the image associated with every pair.
In the previous image, the left figure indicates that the pair doesn't have an associated image and the right figure shows the associate image of the pair.
- Sound: It shows the sound associated with every pair.
If the left figure appears at the Sound column of a pair, it means that the pair doesn't have an associated sound. If the one that appears is the right figure, the pair has an associated sound.
- Correct: A correct pair is a pair in which the image corresponds with the sound and the child should press it to succeed.
In the previous image, the figure of the left side indicates that the pair is correct and the figure of the right that it is incorrect.
- Complete: A pair is complete when has associated image and sound.
In the previous image, the figure of the left side indicates that the pair is complete and the figure of the right that it is incomplete.
Images panel
The available images are shown in this panel and can be associated with the image-sound pairs that have been added to the Image-sound pairs panel. The top part of the panel allows to filter the concepts (or topics) and the language of the image that you want to select. The lower panel will be showing the images that fulfill the conditions of the filters.
Sounds panel
The available sounds are shown in this panel and can be associated with the image-sound pairs that have been added to the Image-sound pairs panel. The top part of the panel allows to filter the concepts (or topics) and the language of the sound that you want to select. The lower panel will be showing the sounds that fulfill the conditions of the filters.
Lower toolbar
This bar allows to make actions on the exercise that is being edited. It has two buttons: Preview and Save. The first one is used to show a preview of the created exercise and the second one allows to store it. This is discussed later in more details.
