>Subject: accommodating a severely dyslexic student

Dear all,

Has anyone used a voicing software program, such as Dragon Naturally 
Speaking, to allow a beginning FL student with severe dyslexia to 
complete written assignments? I doubt this would even work because of 
the demands of training the program to recognize a voice. Can anyone 
offer effective alternatives to producing written work for a beginning 
foreign language (in this case, French) course?

Thanks much,
Tammy
