1.) Dictation
Dictation lets you talk where you would type. So you can reply to an email, search the web, or write a report using just your voice. Navigate to any text field, activate Dictation, then say what you want to write. Dictation converts your words into text.
How could you use this in your classroom??? Think about that student who just can't seem to keep up with the written work assigned in your class...did you think of (at least) one?? Why not let them try dictating their work to share their learning and demonstrate their learning?! Try it today!!!
2.) Guided Access
Guided Access helps people with autism or other attention and sensory challenges stay focused on the task (or app) at hand. With Guided Access, a parent, teacher, or therapist can limit an iOS device to stay on one app by disabling the Home button, and even restrict touch input on certain areas of the screen. So wandering taps and gestures won’t distract from learning.
We all know how easy it can be to get off task and on to another page using our iPads. Use this assistive tool to keep the learning time to just that...Learning time!
3.) Made for iPhone Hearing Aids
Apple has worked with top manufacturers to create hearing aids designed specifically for iPhone. These hearing aids deliver a power-efficient, high-quality digital audio experience, and will allow you to manage your hearing aid right from your iPhone. Learn more
