Hello

This site will offer hints on the use of ict in class. It will be practical in nature and will spring from well founded theory rooted in practice, using software that the author has found to be especially useful for classwork.
The two most useful pieces of software that I have used this year are:

Tintin and the Search fot the Lost letters and
AcceleRead/AcceleWrite

The first piece of software is very useful for working with a dyslexic child. It is used on a one-to-one basis, tutor and child. It gives the tutor a detailed profile of the child's strengths and learning style. It is user-friendly and affirming, so the child will enjoy working through the software.

AcceleRead/AcceleWrite uses the capabilities of the computer and a talking word processor to teach the child in a multimedia format to recognise letter patterns and so develop reading and writing skills.
