Co:Writer is a word prediction software that has the following benefits for students.
Students begin to write independently, as Co:Writer gives assistance with difficult or content-specific words only when needed.
As a student's writing improves, supports can be adjusted or removed, moving the student into total independence
Some of the key factors about Co:Writer would be that it:
Expands Written Vocabulary for All Students
Transform Hesitant Writers into Competent Writers
Student achievement is significantly higher when students use Co:Writer
Students received significantly higher scores on spelling and general mechanics (usage, punctuation, grammar) when using Co:Writer than when they used a word process or alone.
