Double Entry Journal #7

There are many ways technology can be used for children with learning disabilities. Digital Storytelling is one use of technology that could help a child with dyslexia by having them use images to get across their message when they may not have the words to say what they are thinking. Children that are at a low level for reading can use audio books. Podcasts can be used for any student with learning disabilities. A teacher can record her lesson, such as a math lesson, so that the student can review it while working at home.

This site is about how to use technology that can help the elementary child with reading difficulties. It includes teaching recommendations for different types of problems (phonemic awareness, fluency, phonics, and comprehension)that students with learning disabilities can face, what kind of technology would be beneficial, and research behind the use of this technology. It also includes other benefits that the use of technology gives students faced with difficulties in reading.
