Hey Annette, I just went to my Jaws voices and my rate was set on 15%, so I moved it up to 18%. Did I do that right? Patti

Increase your JAWS rate by 3-5 points. So if you are currently at 20, then move it up to 23. Leave it there for a week or two, or until you are comfortable with it. At that point, increase the rate again by 3-5 points. Keep doing this until you reach your maximum comprehension speed. For each person this is different. I am not referring to the percentage rate of JAWS, but rather the value you get when you are setting the rate. You need to also keep in mind that you might want to read different types of material at different rates. So there is nothing wrong with changing the rate to meet your current needs. I hope you find this information helpful.

I really like the sounds your computer makes when you press the space bar and when a check box is checked or not. How can I get my computer to do that. I must be the only one that has my Jaws not talking so fast, because I couldn't keep up with yours. smiles Thanks Patti Laughter is an instant vacation.
