Supplemental Reading and Writing AV Tutor™ |
Marketing Information |
The AV Tutor™ is designed to support
language learners by linking visible letters on the screen with their
audible sounds. This repeated, multi-modal, kinesthetic, visual and
auditory reinforcement helps solidify mental connections between the
written and spoken word. Since the AV Tutor is similar in form to
already popular consumer devices, students will be encouraged and
motivated to use it. The AV Tutor allows educators to facilitate
independent and differentiated electronic learning of core reading
skills within classroom curriculum through its seven available cartridge
programs. It can also be used by students who are performing at or below
grade level, speech-language therapies and ELD/ESL applications. |
