  13. What Educators Are Saying About Dragon NaturallySpeaking The Best Speech Recognition Software in the World Don W. –“Until I started using Dragon Naturally Speaking in my classroom, I thought that I had seen it all. As an Elementary teacher, I find that Dragon is very versatile. I use a digital projector and Dragon for many of my lessons. What’s so cool about Dragon is that it allows me to create exciting lessons on-the-fly with students. Students dictate sentences to me and then I repeat them so that they magically appear before my 3rd graders eyes. They are so impressed that they are all picking up on the commands used for dictation” Paul S. “It's 7 a.m. on a Tuesday morning I've just arrived at my classroom and waiting by the door is one of my students who has only been in this country a few years. He's not waiting for a detention; he's waiting for me to turn on my computer, put on my headset, and speak his essay into a Word document using Dragon NaturallySpeaking”

  14. What Educators Are Saying About Dragon NaturallySpeaking-cont. Paul S. cont. “As class progresses we have completed an outline of an essay. I put on the headset and begin dictating my essay directly into the computer. As though it's magic my essay is displayed on my big-screen TV. My room of 35, street smart eighth-graders, sits in rapt attention as I quickly write, and model, the essay I expect them to produce. Later that day I open up Dragon NaturallySpeaking and write a letter of recommendation for one of my colleagues who is applying to a leadership program at the local university. As my teaching day is now over, I use the program to prepare the next day's lessons. Before I leave school that night, I open an Excel file where I keep the local high school basketball team information and statistics that I use in my volunteer job as the local basketball announcer. Before I wrap it up for the night I use the program to answer my personal e-mail.” “Dragon NaturallySpeaking has not only helped me become a better teacher, it has helped hundreds of students who pass through my classroom every year.”
