I am looking forward to the workshops held in Hamilton in November and am particularly interested in the Text Help Read&Write Gold. I am hoping that this is the answer we need for struggling college students to boost their achievement in literacy. I have been to 2 day workshops held by Spectronics and found them very helpful. I have given the website to others, so that they can keep up to date on the new technologies that are available.
Keep it up!
