FingerReadder - This finger-mounted camera turns any book into an audiobook - 3 views

  •  
    This tool for the blind would be extremely useful, and the device works with print pages and digital readers, such as Kindle. Very tiny camera translates print into spoken word. Currently needs to be tethered to a laptop/computer, but a version of the software may be available soon to use Android phones for the computing.

Using Photos to Support Reading and Writing - 7 views

  •  
    Photos can stimulate emotions, memories, and discussion. I've used photos, either cut from magazines or the local newspaper, or taken by students themselves, to teach reading and writing both overseas and with middle school students in the US. This blog article has some nice times for using photos to learn language, motivate students, and encourage reading and writing. See the companion article for online photos to inspire.
