Technology that helps dyslexic children to study: John Hicks explores the C-Pen

John Hicks from The Studying With Dyslexia Blog explores how the C-Pen handheld text scanner can help children with dyslexia become more confident readers and how schools can save money by using the C-Pen for exams rather than human readers. www.studyingwit...

Only just found this product and hope with all my heart that its a product that will help my son. toankyou for putting this on KZbin

[@Will-zv9xh]

Did it help? I'm thinking of getting this for my daughter. Thank you

[@kevindelaney6836]

Thanks for getting me to the point right away and demonstrating it the first guy on the list of talking about this pain didn't make any sense he didn't seem like a dyslexic he said he was but I don't think so thanks again for explaining it and demonstrating it

Hi Both my boys have been diagnosed with dyslexia. Where can i find this product. I am in South Africa

[@healwithnil8231]

Hi I am in France and I’ve just found it on Amazon

[@melliecrann-gaoth4789]

I borrowed one from the library and couldn’t process reading the instructions- I should try again.

[@clarewilliams6615]

Great video thank for info ill be sharing this in a meeting at my daughters school. This would make her life in school & homework much easier having dyslexia & autism & not having to ask for help, reduce the feeling different from every one would be amazing... So definitely going to buy fingers crossed she expects using it. Thank you C 😊👍🏻

Dude I’m dislexic yeah it’s Nice that people design stuff like this for us but you know will be nicer if they didn’t slap in 1000 or $2000 price tag on it yeah not like I have that kind of cash laying around essays in school and trying to read a book that I’ve been trying to finish probably three years now

[@xxxmoexxx1]

You can get them for like $185, most were around $300

[@freedblowfish3705]

I havent tried them but theres ebay reader pens for $50

[@dirkjamesparker4860]

Thanks John, very useful video. I’ve just come out of a meeting with my child’s teachers who suggested a pen of this type for my daughter. The concept is great. After 3 years I expect the tech has improved since this video, but this vid is a great place to start. Thanks.

[@johnhicks8903]

Glad the video helped!

[@kevincrowe1483]

A little information on the ear phones (ear buds?) used with the pen would be nice. Discretion is a consideration. Thanks so much for the info. 65 and still with needs.

[@melliecrann-gaoth4789]

The needs continue

[@juansalazar9156]

What's it called and where can I get one

[@aliasprojects6214]

Does this pen translate languages?

[@Deanne380]

Have you tried the rocket reader?

[@estalitavanschalkwyk2873]

My child does not have veryvgood vision. Will this help him in school? Glases can't help him

[@estebanpadilla2607]

How fast is it? does it specifies the number of words per minute or something? It would work for spanish?

[@mobiletablet4393]

Yes this version translates English to Spanish and you can control the speed of the words

[@carolnelson1631]

Does a video like this exist in French for French schools?

[@theresestcoeur5381]

I am a little bit "jealous" that you can have it in exams.🇨🇦👀🤔.

[@niallholloway1668]

Is it Worth the £264 cost??

[@johnhicks8903]

That's a question that only you can answer for yourself. Worth a trial to see...

[@sarahedgcumbe8860]
