Class # 2 Reflection

Wow. I am so fortunate to be in this class. Excited, you bet! I have heard about Kurzweil but never had the good fortune of seeing it. I can only imagine that the excitement that I felt today learning about this software and playing with it as that of someone who saw snow or the wide open ocean for the very first time! I know it may sound extreme but that's how excited I was - the opportunities this presents for those having reading and writing difficulties is absolutely unbelievable. Why haven't I been exposed to this prior to today? That's sad. There are far too many students without access to this tool. There are far too many teachers, adminsitrators and parents/guardians that don't even know about this. It can significantly change the lives of unlimited numbers of learners. I envision myself standing on my roof top and shouting out what I learned today - well, not really but I will be sure to spread the word and make use of my 30 day trial.
