An ARC Interview About Assistive Technology

Published on May 17, 2014

SSTattler: Everyday I read for e-mail/Facebook/... from Avi Golden. For example, he use the "Dragon" (and I use it too) - see this article.

Avi Golden, a person with aphasia, shares how he uses assistive technology on his phone to help him communicate. Avi's aphasia makes writing and spelling difficult. Here, he shows how he can say a message and the phone will type it for him.

While this will not work for people with no speech, it will help those with aphasia who can say what they want - but they can't write it.

Interview by Carol Dow-Richards, Director Aphasia Recovery Connection 2013 RAISE Award Winner National Stroke Association

To learn more about the Aphasia Recovery Connection, check it out on the web, on Youtube, or on Facebook.

The app he is demonstrating is called Dragon.
