PAC curriculum has converted its easy to use print versions to this new and powerful electronic edition for Kurzweil 3000T software, so all the work is done for you!  The student sees and hears the text. The activities, quizzes, and tests will also soon be in this format. The reading/hearing speed control feature in Kurzweil 3000T allows the student to select a comfortable or challenging reading speed (click here for system requirements).  Kurzweil's visual and auditory highlighter carries the reader's eyes across the page, allowing the student to pause at any point to repeat a sentence, phrase, word or activity question. Font size and volume can be adjusted to accommodate sight or hearing conditions. Words can be translated from English to Spanish, German, Italian,  Dutch and French.

Students using Dr. Johnson's Talking Textbooks have increased reading skills and interest in learning, enabling students to pass state assessment exams. Special education teachers use Talking Textbooks to satisfy IEP modifications for mainstream compliance.  Classroom teachers can help students feel comfortable in regular classrooms or labs by prescribing  core subjects on the PC-based Talking Textbooks.

Your special education and ESL students will look forward to every audio-optical enhanced course from PAC!  Look at what an ESL student said:

Dr. Johnson's Talking Textbooks are an excellent economical resource for special education programs and accelerated, individualized systems where teacher shortages and student learning styles demand electronic delivery format.  PAC provides training on implementing accelerated programs and curriculum-with or without the Talking Textbooks.
