I recently read Kids Deserve It! by Todd Nesloney and Adam Welcome. One tool Welcome speaks of using in his practice is the voice typing feature of Google Docs:
“…We need to be showing our kids how to utilize this tool, even more so than typing skills.
Kids still need to edit their writing, of course, but voice typing allows them to get all their ideas down without having to navigate the keyboard, which is challenging to many kids.”

Thank you for reading and watching. If you would like to discuss this further, please comment below or tweet me at @edtechtom.
