Reviews
"The most interesting piece of curriculum software that I saw [at BETT] was produced by Kudlian, famous for Terry the Turtle, Banner and Splosh. Slideshow is a very simple piece of software that enables children to combine slides, movie clips and sound into a simple movie"
"..it is so simple to use that surely any child will be able to make their own movies."
"The hands on nature of SlideShow makes it ideal for children of all ages to use. It is a real asset and an essential ICT tool for schools"
