Using Write Out Loud or AlphaSmart - 07/28/10 09:18 PM
School starts in just a few weeks for us. As part of my DD's new 504 she will be offered access to an AlphaSmart and/or Write Out Loud. I know very little about these accommodations other than brief descriptions in the Eide's book. I'm not sure if the school plans to offer any training or if DD is supposed to figure them out on her own. Has anyone had experience with either of these? Any feedback, good bad or indifferent would be helpful.
Also, I'm trying to have DD learn the keyboard this summer. Is there anything in particular that I should have DD practice over the last few weeks of summer that might help her use these tools?
