In this video clip, the students are reading Jules Verne's book Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. The text is projected on a big screen for all students to see which words are highlighted and spoken by a digital voice output system. This way, the students receive both visual and auditory support. Later, they complete an assignment in which they individually respond to their latest reading in the digital book. In this video clip, the students are using a talking word processor to aid their writing that is supported by the program's immediate auditory feedback. They succeed in accomplishing the writing task by being prompted or cued by the spelling features of the program, by having several options to select rich or most interesting words to use in sentence writing, and then by listening to their options. The teachers can monitor the students' comprehension of the text and the use of new vocabulary words introduced by the reading selection. |
