Ghotit Releases its Dyslexia Writing & Reading Solution for Windows Tablets

(1888 PressRelease) Ghotit released its long awaited Real Writer & Reader for Microsoft Windows tablets. Ghotit Real Writer & Reader uses advanced writing and reading assistant technologies tailor-made for people with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning disabilities.

The Ghotit Real Writer & Reader boasts of the following advanced capabilities, all designed for the dyslexic community:

• Intelligent context-sensitive spell checker
• Advanced grammar checker
• A powerful word prediction tool
• A built-in proofreader
• A reader that can read out any document or web page.

In this release, Ghotit Real Writer & Reader will support any text application, running Windows 8. This includes Microsoft desktop, laptops and tablets. This version has been adapted and optimized for applications using standard touch screen user interfaces.

Ofer Chermesh, one of Ghotit's founders, is a lifelong dyslexic. The struggle of producing readable text is well known to him. "The tablet revolution has affected the way people consume information and communicate. More and more people are adopting tablets as the preferable means to communicate with each other. This is influencing the writing assistant tools developed for dyslexics. With this release, people with dyslexia will be able to run the Ghotit spell checker using standard touch screen practices."

Regular text editors and spell checkers are designed to correct relatively minor spelling mistakes. In order to identify the correct spelling of a poorly spelled word, the context of the sentence needs to be analyzed. Ghotit offers a novel patent-protected context spell checking technology, tuned for people with dyslexia and bad spelling habits. Using these algorithms, Ghotit can detect and correct not only really bad spelled words but also misused words, words that are spelled correctly, but are written out of context. Ghotit also offers

    Reading has gone from print to becoming digital in today’s world and affects not only the way we read but also the way we communicate with one another, since we are conscience about technology altering the way we read. Remember what a book looks like? Let me show you that by leaving our prints behind, the way we read today has scaled to a digital level, leaving standard books and letters obsolete. Even though you can’t furnish a room with just a single device, like you are able with books, or you can’t necessarily fling your e-reader across the room because you risk breaking it. Despite Jabr (April, 2013) stating "Before 1992 most studies concluded that people read slower, less accurately and…

    Once, called away to an unanticipated school conference, I began drafting my short noticed speech with a yellow wooden pencil. Unfortunately this graphite loaded, eraser-tipped writing spear has become an alienated object as I readily admit my dependence on a new technology of writing. I found that I had become so used to composing virtual prose that I could no longer draft anything coherent directly onto a piece of paper. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t think of the words, but the deliberate physical effort of handwriting, crossing out, revising, cutting and pasting was much too tedious. The writing practices that I had been engaged in regularly since the age of four, now seemed to overwhelm and constrict me as I longed for the flexibility of digitized text.…

    The essay “Use Your Own Words” by Anne Trubek argues a great point that technology is changing the way we read and write and that spell must change also. Should the world let technology take over? What is the purpose of a map if you can easily find it on your phone and get directions? Think about it, what is the purpose of having a book or newspaper in modern times if you can easily go on the internet. She supports this by showing and explaining how spelling checkers and much more are slowly messing with the way we spell.…

    Every parent wants to have a genius child who will grow toppers and rankers in the world. Parents already have their plans on what their children will be in the future. They have these high expectations that their child will grow intelligent and fast learners. But what if their expectations become disappointments? What if it turns out that their child isn’t capable of what they expect? Can you consider a child worthless in this world if he can’t just read or write; like what normal children can do? Children who have difficulties in understanding letters, numbers, and directions were called dumb, stupid, lazy, ignorant and illiterate. Some of them are being bullied by their playmates, and pressured and beated by their parents. They are scolded by their teachers that cause to lower their confidence, to be hopeless, and confused of why they can’t live in a normal way.
