FreeSpeech – Build Language and Learn Grammar

*** NOW ONLY $9.99 (REG $19.99) [USD] - LIMITED TIME ONLY *** AS SEEN ON TED BY 1M+ VIEWERS: http://go.ted.com/CW6u FreeSpeech is an app to explore the English language! Drag and rearrange picture tiles, and FreeSpeech will convert them into a perfectly grammatical English sentence. Explore how tenses, sentence forms, parts of speech, and other grammatical properties change the structure of English -- and it's all visual! FreeSpeech is the perfect app for anyone with an interest in the English language - whether you are * introducing a young child to the complexities of English grammar, or * work with kids with language/speech/hearing impairments, or * are learning English from a second language, or * love language as much as we do! FreeSpeech is unique because it's the only app in the world that predicts grammar. You can throw a bunch of picture tiles at it, and the app will automatically figure out a grammatically correct sentence from them. - It's possible to manipulate words, tenses and structure as if you were manipulating building blocks. - You can even use a Spanish interface, so you throw Spanish words at it and it creates perfect English sentences! - The app lets teachers and learners model/recast/contrast various grammar rules pictorially, all the while speaking out correct English. FreeSpeech is based on solid research, and builds language by: - EXPANDING: Prompting users with questions to expand their sentences; - SCAFFOLDING: Intelligently predicting words that they are likely to use; - CONTRASTING: Visually modeling tense and sentence modifiers; - RECASTING: Automatically inserting prepositions and articles as needed; and - ERRORLESS MODELING: Automatically predicting grammar, to assemble a map of pictures into a grammatically correct English sentence. FreeSpeech is aligned with Core Curriculum language, speaking, and writing comprehension goals. It allows children to create grammatically correct sentences by visually mapping pictures, all the while learning the structure of language. Because FreeSpeech automatically provides the link between ideas and words, children can say anything they want - visually! FreeSpeech features more than 2,000 symbols from Symbolstix, and is ideally suited to use alongside other AAC, articulation and education apps that use these lovely symbols. Developed by an interdisciplinary team including SLPs, educators, and researchers with over 100 years of collective experience, FreeSpeech is the most advanced language learning technology currently available. The technology behind FreeSpeech was the subject of a TED talk by its creator Ajit Narayanan which has been viewed more than one million times. The development of FreeSpeech, combining engineering with generative linguistics, earned the team recognition as one of the world's Top 35 Innovators from MIT Technology Review.
