We too have a translator for our deaf student. But I will be looking
at Mac Dictate in the future for a few things, not lectures though as
most people do not lecture with punctuation period.

1) Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and
ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2) Anything that's invented between when you're 15 and 35 is new and
exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3) Anything invented after you're 35 is again the natural order of
things

useful for this, though.

At East Sac we have a full-time person that is with the deaf student
all day and signs for the student and Newell-Fonda does the same.
Other than the teacher writing out notes every day, I don’t know of
any software that would work.

Subject: [info-tech] Note taking for deaf student
Hello all,
We have a deaf student in our High School and are trying to figure
out how to get the teachers lecture visually recorded for him
everyday. The Special Ed people have tried Dragon Naturally Speaking
and wireless Bluetooth headsets and an associate to go along with
him. You can imagine how badly that works. How are other districts
handling the deaf students? Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Tony Richardson
