]]> Comment on Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional helps people with disabilities? by Bobbi Johnson, MS, OTR http://speak-it.com/dragon-naturallyspeaking-professional-help-people-with-disabilities/comment-page-1/#comment-24 Bobbi Johnson, MS, OTR Thu, 08 Apr 2010 18:37:16 +0000 http://www.speak-it.com/fin/?p=24#comment-24 Hi Jim, I am an occupational therapist at the waisman center here in madison wi. I am working with a 17 year old bright high school student from Lodi WI who has cerbral palsy and a significant vision impairment. His goal is to go to a university after graduating. But he has very little technology in place. His parents have asked me to help get this student as independent as possible. He has successfully completed the training portion of Dragon Naturally Speaking Preferred vs 10 and has some luck with it but not great. I am not any where near the expert in voice recognition so am hoping we can tap into your services. My questions for you are: Do you work with school systems via a contract or other means that might help support this student? Do you have experience with ZoomText screen magnification or able to assist with macros for this software? Could we set up a series of 1:1 training where the parents or school could pay you to see the student with me here at the clinic? I know these are fairly abstract questions, I'm just trying to get a better understanding of what options might be available to help this student be a better user of Dragon as I am mildly out of my elements in that area (I typically work with students who are non-verbal and use computers to talk for them). Thanks for any info you can provide. Hi Jim, I am an occupational therapist at the waisman center here in madison wi.
