• PixWriter connects the printed word with the spoken word. • Writing is accomplished by selecting prefilled vocabulary buttons. • Sight-word recognition is increased because students hear the words spoken as the words are written. • Difficulties of letter formation, computer access, sound-symbol relationships, spelling, and fine-motor control are minimized through selection of whole- word buttons. • Single-switch scanning for computer access enables students with physical limitations to create written documents. • The written product is legible. • Vocabulary is presented to the student so he/she will communicate his/her message clearly and concisely. • PixWriter can be used in classroom and home environments. |
