This is a great video to watch to see how a girl went from being non-verbal to being able to express herself through typing on a computer. Her parents had no idea that she knew as much as she does because she couldn't vocalize it. She is able to express her thought and feelings now that she can talk through the computer. I can't even imagine how this would feel.
I would love for my daughter to be able to do something like this but she doesn't know the alphabet and cannot type. I would love for just one day to see how much she knows and what goes on in her head. It's hard to know if she understands me of if she is just not interested in what I am asking.
This would be a huge help in the classroom. I'm sure it causes less anxiety for her now that she has a voice. I hope that there a many students that can benefit from their children learning to speak via computer or iPad.
