Summary

Help struggling writers overcome barriers to progress with DocsPlus – the brand new writing tool for secondary schools. Join the many schools around the world using Crick Software’s products to develop students’ writing skills and confidence.

FOR STUDENTS AGED 11-ADULT DocsPlus is a specially designed word processor with an adult look and feel, yet providing extensive writing support through high quality speech, powerful word prediction and our acclaimed Wordbars.

REVIEW WRITING WITH CLEAR SPEECH As students write, their work is read back to them as each sentence is completed. Research shows that this active engagement with text encourages students to find and correct errors for themselves.

DEVELOP VOCABULARY AND SPELLING WITH WORD PREDICTION The intelligent predictor suggests words that fit the context of students’ writing. It’s easily customized to the right reading level, helping students to use good vocabulary and create flowing text with accurate spelling. Students can listen to words in both the predictor and the spell checker before using them, helping them to find the word they want.

BUILD WRITING CONFIDENCE WITH WORDBARS The unique Wordbars provide tabbed vocabulary support for any subject or topic – just click a word to add it to the document. Make your own Wordbars in a flash to support any topic, or get free, ready-made ones from our LearningGrids site, accessible within the app and covering a range of curriculum topics.
