Hi,
I downloaded a few books from Bookshare and have to read in class
too. When my teacher says to open our books all I do is is just
find the book in the Book Reader and open it. When you're done
reading a document either in KeyWord or in the Book Reader, all
you have to do is open it again and you'll be at the spot where
you were when you closed it.
Hope this helps!

Subject: [Braillenote] Best way to read in class
Hi,
Recently I obtained a few Mpowers for my students. They need to
be able to
find their spot quickly in books as the class reads them. Is it
better to
have them read the books in the book reader or in Key Word.
I have been asking them to use Key Word because they can drop a
string such
as xxx to mark their spot when done reading and easily search for
their last
save the next day. But there must be a better way.
When the teacher says open your book to page 172, I have the kids
do a space
126 and jump to that page then search for a string of words where
they will
begin reading. This is often not fast enough. How do you do it?
Are there
advantages to using the book reader that I just don't know?
Are there any pod casts on using the BN in the classroom that
would be
helpful? These are 3rd and 6th graders.
Appreciate your thoughts and tips.
Keith
