Event Details
Students often dislike writing because they stumble with some part of the writing process. In this class, you'll learn how technology tools can relieve writing anxieties connected with generating and organizing ideas, finding the right words, editing, and correcting spelling and grammar. You will also learn options for generating written text more quickly and legibly. This class includes live demonstrations.
Participants will also learn:
• How to decide whether or not a student is a good candidate for speech recognition
• How to use templates to model good writing form
• When to use and not use word prediction/completion software
• How text-to-speech software can improve editing
• The importance of matching technology to a student’s abilities, tasks and settings
Technology tools to be discussed and/or demonstrated include:
• Low-tech writing aids
• Fusion & Neo 2 (portable word processors)
• Speech recognition for Windows PCs, Macs, iPads and smartphones
• Ginger Software (contextual spelling and grammar checker)
• Specialized dictionaries and thesauri
• Inspiration, Kidspiration, Draft:Builder and Mind Manager (graphic organizer and mind mapping software)
• Software to improve keyboarding skills
Who should attend: Though content is primarily aimed at parents, middle and high school students are welcome to attend.
