Creating Writing Scaffolds in Clicker 4

By Zeijdel, Claire; Fonner, Kelly; CSUN Technology and Persons With Disabilities Conference - 2002,
Publication Date: 2002

Article discusses Clicker 4 from Crick Software, Incorporated, which is an onscreen keyboard with voice output. Each key, or cell, holds a letter, word, phrase, or picture. When a cell is clicked on a Clicker 4 grid, the text or graphic in the cell is sent to whatever word processing program that is being used. The cells can also speak their text out loud using built-in speech software. The program also features a built-in word processor called Clicker Writer. The program can be used to create writing frames, reference materials such as glossaries, “word-walls” and other word-study exercises. This paper was presented at the 2002 California State University at Northridge Technology and Persons With Disabilities Conference.
