A student in our technology for PETE class, Ashley, presented today on a software called DragonDictation. This software was awesome and could be used in any classroom setting. What this software does is type what you say into the microphone into a word document at an amazing speed! It keeps up with what you are saying. I was blown away by this software thinking about how much time you could save as a teacher writing lesson plans and assignments. Although this software in not considered cheap, it would be an amazing assett to the classroom! This can be used with students of different disabilities as well and that is what I consider a great addition to the classroom. Also, on the ipad, Dr. Leight downloaded a free application for DragonDictation, I would recommend getting it! Here is the link to the website if you are interested.
