Penfriend

Penfriend predicts words that you are most likely to type, using a variety of knowledge including English grammar, frequently used words and a learned knowledge of your personal writing style.

As you type, Penfriend displays a list of words beginning with the letters you have entered. It learns each user's vocabulary and style to improve its prediction. A single click on the word of your choice enters the whole word into your word processor.

You can use Penfriend's on-screen keyboard to type into your software, and its speech facility enables you to hear pieces of text from almost any application, by reading out the contents of the clipboard. You can also hear predicted words before you write, or letters, words and sentences as you write.

Penfriend's abbreviations facility enables you to make easy work of entering frequently used text, and can even help you correct common typing mistakes.

Penfriend also links seamlessly with Clicker for complete switch accessibility: it can send its predicted words directly into a Clicker Grid.

For students with spelling difficulties, Penfriend can greatly increase confidence, broaden vocabulary and speed up writing. Watch your students' confidence grow as Penfriend predicts correctly spelled words before mistakes are made.
