WPS helps a user during word
processing on a computer by "predicting" a word that the user wants
to type. The way in which the word is predicted is
based off a spelling, syntax and frequency of use. It can help students who struggle with
correct spelling, grammar and word choices (e.g. homonyms). It also requires fewer keystrokes so those
who have fatigue easily or have trouble controlling their hands/fingers would
benefit.
This video demonstrates both how WordQ
and SpeakQ work by helping to correct grammar and spelling as well as how word
prediction functions. It's only 3
minutes in length and very informative http://www.youtube.com/v/Ae74_3jFO4A?autoplay=1&rel=0&enablejsapi=1&playerapiid=ytplayer
This absolutely would be
applicable and useful for the high school level as students already typically
have a sense of grammar, spelling and words.
