Telescopic Teachers Pointer,Teaching Pointer,Hand Pointer Extendable Telescopic Retractable Pointer Handheld Presenter Classroom Whiteboard Pointer (2 PCS)

I’m mentoring a kid on how to use a desktop computer and various programs. I didn’t like having to repeatedly get up and reach over her to point out a specific icon on the computer screen. Now, I just use the pointer. It’s quicker and more accurate than reaching in front of her and using my big hand to point at a small icon in a group of lots of icons, which the angle of my hand often covered up and made it difficult for her to see which icon I was pointing to. The pointer makes working with her so much easier from my chair instead of having to get up, reach around her, and say this one, or point to a specific icon/location in whatever program I’ve had her open. The handle fits well in the hand, the telescoping shaft is light and strong, and it’s well made; I think it will last a long time. For the price and ease to use, I do recommend it as a very useful teaching tool...

I got this because although I have laser pointers, almost always on modern LCD's/TV screens the light gets diffused and the laser "dot" disappears. And since today tons of presentations are done on lit screens (TV or monitor), the old-fashioned way seems to be the choice. This pointer has a white tip which I like to have since often slide backgrounds are dark (if they're white, it's easier to see the pointer in front of a white background). Anyway it works fine - good textured handle/bass, smooth telescoping and no kinks or jerks pulling out/pushing in. Good product.

Pointer arrived in good condition. Pointer was as described - sturdy and telescopic worked perfectly.

My son wanted this to....point at things... It has thus far survived an 8 year old and no one has been impaled - it has a softish end. He complained that it had some rust on the inside (if you remove tip), but overall he's really enjoying it. It extends smoothly and has a quality appearance. Overall he's very happy. We have not tried to use it on a touch screen.

This is a replacement for one I had for years, which I bent accidentally. I find this useful daily. Mostly I use it to reach across awkward places to straighten a curtain, slide something I dropped toward me. I find it amusing that I'm not using it in teaching like I used to do. This particular pointer is sturdy and easy to use.

I’m a therapist, and use this for Brainspotting. It’s perfect!

It was bought to help point to icons on the car screen which I couldn’t not reach with my finger while traveling with the seat belt restriction.The white end also did not change the programs. Thought I wasted $6.00.Turned to the black rubber end & it workedbetter & changed the screen. Telescope !!!

They are light weight and easy to use, but they do not lock to stay open. If u use it to push something it does collapse easy.
