Does SentenceShaper help the user to find words?
Although its primary function is to provide processing support, SentenceShaper does provide two kinds of help with word-finding. The Side Buttons, the 36 buttons surrounding the Work Area (see screen shot above), display printed words. When clicked, each of these buttons plays a sound file of the word. The WordFinder (entered by clicking the question mark icon on the lower right of the screen) is a list of printed words, organized by meaning, which can be played by clicking. Once the user has found the word he wants to use, he records the word in his own voice in order to incorporate it into a sentence. Both word-finding tools can be customized easily by family or clinician.
