Demonstration #2

Educational Insights GeoSafari Smart Talk

A high-tech assistive device that helps get students talking. It’s a learning aid that introduces and reinforces essential vocabulary that all English language Learners and all children with limited vocabularies need to know and use everyday.

Students see a picture, hear the word associated with the picture and then repeat the word over and over again practicing their pronunciation until the word becomes a part of their spoken vocabulary.

Students then hear the word in context and are asked questions about the target word.

Price is $89.99 for the instrument
$39.99 for the cards

My AT device is a low-tech Timer. The timer can be used to let students with disabilities know their time limit for assignments in class, tests etc. The Timer is enlarged and works great for visual learners and students with LD and autism. It can be used with all types of disabilities. You can buy a similar one to this timer at http://www.independentliving.com/products.asp?dept=418&deptname=Large+Number+Timers for $19.95
